Thank you for help. I have now:

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon 9000 Pro (RV250 If)"
	Driver		"ati"
	BusID		"PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"P75f+"
	HorizSync	30-97
	VertRefresh	50-160
	Option		"DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier	"Default Screen"
	Device		"ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon 9000 Pro (RV250 If)"
	Monitor		"P75f+"

...and it works.
