I let Branden take care of it ;-). The installation automagic mostly
works for me. Please note, however, that I'm using the Radeon VE. Not
all Radeons appear to be supported under x4.1.
FWIW here's the corresponding portion (extract) from my X config:
Section "Device"
Identifier "MyRadeon"
Driver "radeon"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "MyMonitor"
HorizSync 30-54
VertRefresh 50-85
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "MyRadeon"
Monitor "MyMonitor"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 1
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 4
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 15
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24

EndSubSection
