More details would be appreciated... Computer model, monitor resolution, what you have 
tried up to now...

Anyway, for what is worth, here's my config for a "ATI rage128 MOBILITY".
The thing with the r128 is that you must specify the use of the fbdev.

Section "Device"
    Identifier "device1"
    VendorName "ATI"
    BoardName "ATI Rage 128 Mobility"
    Driver "r128"
    BusID "PCI:0:16:0"
    Option "DPMS"
    Option "ForcePCIMode" "true"
    Option "UseFBDev" "true"
    Option "UseCCEFor2D" "false"
EndSection

(...)
Hint: see the line Option ..."UseFBDev" "true"... ? That's probably the solution. You 
can also remplace r128 with fbdev if it's not working.

Hope it helps.
