The former r128 and radeon drivers have been integrated into the ati driver,
so r128_drv.o is only a submodule of ati_drv.o anymore. The question is why
r128_drv.o gets loaded directly in the first place. "r128" and "radeon" in the
Device Section should both load the ati driver now. I hope you are in fact
using the 4.0.2 XFree86 binary?
