Just a ping -- I haven't been able to find an example xorg.conf, so I
have no idea if I'm even close to what I need. I just added the
'Driver "radeonhd"' line to the Device section.
Also fine would be a simple "there probably are no sample configs,
you're on your own, good luck", if that's the case. :-)
Thanks!

I have a kubuntu hardy box, just installed xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd, and have tried 'Driver "radeonhd"' and 'Driver "ati"' in the config -- in both cases X just complains "No devices detected".
I got the same thing with my Sapphire 3870HD. And I eventually got past that by setting Option "HPD" "off" in my Device section (with driver of radeonhd). Note that setting HPD to "swap" (which is recommended over "off") didn't work for me, though it may for you.
No luck. I thought the HPD option was for detecting the monitor? As far as I can tell, what's happening for me is that the video card or driver is not found. This is my current config (note that the card works fine if I don't specify a driver):
Section "Module" #Load "xv" EndSection
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" EndSection
Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" # Driver "radeonhd" # Option "HPD" "off" EndSection
Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection
Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen "Default Screen" EndSection
