Here's what you might try:

 - Install XFree 4.2.1 from testing. It's got a whole load of drivers 
that just aren't there in 4.1.0 from stable/woody, but I don't know 
whether it recognizes the 9000 properly.
 - If that doesn't work, have a look at the "Downloads" section at 
http://dri.sourceforge.net, the package they provide should support 
what you need. I didn't have muck luck in installing those on a woody 
system, so you might want to update to 4.2.1 anyway.
