 It most likely will work because the server will detect the address
correctly when allowed to (see the RADEON warning message above).  You
apparently specified the wrong address in the BusID line, which resulted in
the "No devices detected." error message above.  Stop giving it the wrong
address.  Just remove the BusID line, and try it, for goodness's sake.

No.  Change the driver from vesa to radeonhd, and make sure the radeonhd drive 
is installed and loaded.


x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd

I'm running dual widescreens with that driver, and it works well, except 
acceleration isn't working yet.

# grep radeonhd /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(II) LoadModule: "radeonhd"
(II) Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeonhd_drv.so
(II) Module radeonhd: vendor="AMD GPG"
