$ dmesg | grep ATI
vga1 at pci1 dev 0 function 0 "ATI Radeon HD 3450" rev 0x00

Works relatively well, not the fastest acceleration (far from it), but better than software rendering. Just don't xrandr a monitor sideways...that seems to make it painfully slow and borderline unstable.

# with monitor sideways...
$ glxgears
IRQ's not enabled, falling back to busy waits: 0 11
2160 frames in 5.0 seconds = 431.991 FPS
2191 frames in 5.0 seconds = 438.047 FPS

# monitor normal...
$ glxgears
IRQ's not enabled, falling back to busy waits: 0 11
3645 frames in 5.0 seconds = 728.989 FPS
3644 frames in 5.0 seconds = 728.665 FPS

Like I said, not even close to the best, but better than software rendering...
