As far as I can tell now there should not be need for specifying
different
drivers for ATI boards. The ati module will recognise your hardware and will
trigger the loading of r128, radeon, etc, as a submodule. Only if this is
wrong (i.e. the following lines do not appear):
(II) Loading sub module "r128"
(II) LoadModule: "r128"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/r128_drv.so
you should force loading of the submodule directly. So there is no difference
for your case, and you should use ati instead of r128.
Best regards,
Ender.
