Dunno about yours, but I've got an (older) ATI Xpert 98 card which 
works great with the mach64 driver.

I've also run another 7.2 installation with an Aopen Nvidia GeForce2
card (Aopen MX200, 64 meg RAM) using the Nvidia drivers (not the 
Xfree nvidia drivers) and it worked great for the limited amount of
time I tested it.

go into XF86Config-4 and make sure the device is set to use the r128
chipset.  Did the install detect the card?  Normally the r128 works with the
SVGA package that comes with XFree86.  I'm guessing you see the BIOS boot
sequence til linux boots, then when it switches to runlevel 5 it blanks out?
try booting in runlevel 3 and running startx, see what that tells you.

I get a blank screen.  It appears that it is loading properly from the
hard drive activity, butI can't see anything until I
Control-Alt-Backspace.  That now returns me to the console log-in.
Thanks,

Radeon 64 MB DDR for RHL 7.2, Radeon 7500 if you're willing to upgrade
XFree to 4.2.
