I'll be glad to post it when I get back to the laptop (might be a day or
two). However, I am convinced the problem is not there.

Yes, I unmasked and emerged the latest xfree and xfree-drm from the
Gentoo portage system. No go. I even went outside portage and grabbed
the latest XFree86 source files and the latest DRI source files.
Everything compiled and ran fine, but still no go on 3D acceleration.

Under Knoppix 3.3, this hardware does 3D accel perfectly. So,
obviously, I need to get the right combination of kernel version plus
module versions. I'll see if I can get to that point under gentoo.

Thanks for the help!
