This chip is not yet fully supported by Xorg (although support is coming
along). 

You can use either the xf86-video-radeonhd or the xf86-video-ati drivers
from the ports collection.

It should work fine for 2D (radeonhd should have some 2D hardware
accelleration), but not hardware accellerated 3D yet AFAIK. Among other
things, the kernel component needed for that needs updating. It is being
worked on in 8-CURRENT.
