Well, you can trust the log for that, if you need to make sure, you can also use fglrxinfo or glxinfo to determine whether Direct Rendering is enabled or not. If you get someting like OpenGL Renderer String: ATI Radeon 9600XT or something like that, you are using DRI, if MESA shows up, you are using software OpenGL.

The internal and external AGPGART drivers in the fglrx module only makes a difference when you have hardware that is not recognized by the driver's GART driver. In otherwords, if you have a chipset for which the driver doesn't know how to operate AGPGART on. In such cases you are forced to use the External module which would correspond to the kernel-side driver.
