From mesamatrix, if I'm not wrong, the r600 support the 4.1 version while on my system the version appears to be 3.0. I enabled the Oibaf ppa and then installed also the 4.7 kernel but it is the same.

Any idea?

try to
ls /etc/X11
and
ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
to see if there is something strange
also you can config the driver by adding a dedicated file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
check here and here for more infos

I tried to enable DRI 3 but I've got a black screen, I'll retry now that I have the Oibaf ppa enabled
Edit: same problem, enabling DRI 3 I got a low graphic mode message. In Xorg.0.log appears the "No device detected" error. Maybe I have to configure both I mean also the intel driver?
Edit2: adding also a 10-intel.conf X starts ok and DRI 3 is enabled:
$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep DRI[ 762.823] (**) intel(0): Option "DRI" "3"

DRI_PRIME=1 or 2 is not working anymore... I have to investigate

Mesa does not support compatibility profiles, so it will always display 3.0 as the highest non-Core version.
In your case OpenGL 3.3 is supported. OpenGL 4.1 support for r600 is limited to a few chips which support fp64 in hardware.
TURKS based cards are not among them, so unless someone implements fp64 software emulation in Mesa you will be stuck on 3.3. You can however override the advertised GL version to whatever you like, as there is most likely not a single game which actually uses fp64. Have a look here: http://www.mesa3d.org/envvars.html
