I agree... ati.2 drivers and the drm kernel should be included for support of radeons. I just got a new laptop with a radeon mobility. 8.2 installed ... and X worked but not too great. I extracted the ati.2 binaries inside /usr ... ran XFdrake again and chose the option for X4.1.0 but it installed 4.2.0 ..which is good... then everything was working flawlessly even GL and FYI: this was on a dell inspiron 8100 that radeon mobility 7500 is the only thing that does not get configured properly.
