http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/xpert2000_pro/ confirms that it's
an ATI Rage 128 chipset.

You didn't mention what version of XFree86 you're trying to set up: Any
4.x version should be OK, and should enable DRI-based 3D support. 3.x
support is doubtful.

You should be able to find XFree86 v. 4.1 compiled and packaged for your
choice of distribution, if necessary.
