Create a script class/99-radeon:

#! /bin/bash

# skip if class XORG is not defined
grep -q XORG $FAI/class && exit 0

ATI_RADEON_ID=$(lspci | grep VGA | grep ATI | grep Radeon)
[ "$ATI_RADEON_ID" != "" ] && echo XORG_ATI


But the class XORG has to be defined before this script get executed.
Hope this helps.
