Try something like: 
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "ATI Technologies, Inc. Rage 128 (RL/VR AGP)"
#       Driver          "ati"
        Driver          "r128"
        VideoRam        8834
        Option          "UseFBDev"              "true"
        Option          "AGPMode"               "2"
        Option          "SWCursor" #recommended by Daniel ubuntu dev.

My money is on UseFBDev
You can also try r128 rather than ati but I doubt this makes a diff.
PS-post to the list for others to benefit.
