amd64:/lib/modules/2.6.13-10sep2005/kernel/drivers/char/drm\> ls -la
total 132
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 120257 2005-09-10 20:02 radeon.ko

yes, modules exists but not loaded (at least lsmod doesn't list them).
maybe loaded by X 
edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Section "Module"
    Load    "GLcore"
    Load    "bitmap"
    Load    "dbe"
    Load    "ddc"
    Load    "dri"
    Load    "extmod"
    Load    "freetype"
    Load    "glx"	<---- need to look at this
    Load    "int10"
    Load    "record"
    Load    "speedo"
    Load    "type1"
    Load    "vbe"
EndSection

I need to go. Thanks for advice. I will try this evening.
I will kill X and try to load modules from console.
