I have no experience with ATI cards, but a frame buffer configuration could make your X-system working for the first time, too. You tried this?
If you want further information about the support state of your card, you could go here: http://www.xfree.org/4.2.1/Status.html (2D drivers), http://dri.sourceforge.net/ (3D acceleration support).
