I think it may not be quite that bad.  XFree86 supports a fair number
of chips in their native high resolution modes, which presumably
indicates that those had data available.  As I recall, the C&T chips
are among those, as are S3, Matrox, and probably other.  NeoMagic is a 
notorious exception (there's a binary only XFree86 support piece for
it, which is rather an ugly compromise but my laptop likes it...)
