after a lot of tests and Google'ing I managed it working with
the following tricks in xorg.conf:

	...
Section "Device"
	#
	# the following Option *must* be set otherwise the driver
	# finds the VGA & DVI ports, but ignores the builtin LVDS display
	# see:
	# http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2005-October/010517.html
	#
	Option      "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, CRT"
	Identifier  "Card0"
	Driver      "radeon"
	VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
	BoardName   "Unknown Board"
	# BoardName   "MOBILITY RADEON X700"
	BusID       "PCI:3:0:0"
	#
	# the real ChipID is 0x5653, but not known in Xorg 6.8.2
	# see:
	# https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1873
	#
	ChipID      0x4a49
EndSection
	...

I also had a look into xf86-video-ati-X11R7.0-6.5.7.3 and there the
ChipID 0x5653 at least is known; thanks to all who replied me in
private;
