Is this correct?
Sort of. It looks like your Radeon card is a PCI card, and your SiS card is AGP. I don't think that DRI works with PCI Radeon cards at all, so that's out (don't take my word for it, though: check dri.sourceforge.net). The best I can tell you if you want DRI is check if that SiS chip is supported by DRI and if it is, reconfigure X to use that card instead.
