The "radeon" 2d driver supports all radeon cards.  it detects which
one you have and loads the proper 3d driver for you.  the "ati" driver
is just a wrapper that detects your card and then loads the proper 2d
driver: either ati_misc (all mach64/32/etc. cards) , r128 (for all
r128 cards) or radeon (for all radeon cards).
