The support for these cards is pretty recent, especially when it comes
to DRI. See also https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6149

For tribe 5, boot in "failsafe" (vesa) mode if that works, and please
test the newer xserver and xserver-xorg-video-ati from
http://users.tkk.fi/~tjaalton/dpkg/ . Remember to switch back to "ati"
driver after installing these packages. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-
xorg -phigh" will give you a menu choice where you select ati, or use
the new graphics driver selection in System->Administration (although I
am not sure how reliable that one is). It would be very good if you can
provide a Xorg.0.log from using the newest versions.

See also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge for more on testing
versions.
