And all the XF86Config stuff is as usual, except maybe:
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "ATI mobility"
        Driver          "r128"
#       Driver          "ati"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
        VideoRam        8192
#       Option          "UseFBDev"              "true"
EndSection
