The Tungsten ati driver can be found at

http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/bleeding-edge/

It's the "r200" driver

Beware it is still beta "bleeding edge". All I can say is that I installed the
version dated nov 11 and it worked pretty well. At least I couldn't find any
bugs. YMMV

For X 4.2.99, go to xfre86.org and follow their instructions for checking out
from cvs. Be careful when installing though. Compiling was easy enough, but
to get the installation correct is a bit of a PITA
