I'm guessing you used Xautoconfig4 at some point and not
Xconfigurator to create your XF86Config-4 file. In your case, you
would change "driver" to ati. However, IIRC Xautoconfig4 probes your
card - if you have a Radeon card in the box, I don't think you want
the ati driver; you're already set up for acceleration.
