For your chip you have to patch xf86-video-ati + disable as above. I'll attach
the patch which someone posted in another bug when I find it.

I think this is going to come up again and again, so I hope in the absence of
any way to change it on the fly, that it does get made into an xorg.conf option
as suggested in comment 17.
