Have you checked your /var/log/Xorg.*.log files?  They should reflect
why the Xgl server is not being accellerated.

Also, one other option may be to try the opensource radeon driver.
You can lookup your card's pci ID (use lspci && lspci -n) in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/char/drm/drm_pciids.h to see if it is supported
or not.  If so, you should be able to get aiglx working with
opensource drivers.
