this an hardware vendor issue.
ati used to provide enought information so that the communauty can write
drivers.
now they choose to do the drivers theirselfes, so standard XFree86 does not
come with drivers for them.
due to ethical and legal reasons, we cannot distribute ati drivers with the
download edition.
but the packages than one can buy in shops will come with ati drivers.
as for defaulting on vesa driver:
fred: do radeon support it (unlike intel video cards)?

The installation config tool offers "radeon" and "radeon 8500" options, both of
these fail to test (error message only) and fail start the X server later on.
