I had a similar problem on a recent install.
If the rest of your setup went fine, just edit XF86Config to reflect the 
card.
Something like this 'should' work:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "ATI Rage 128"
    Driver      "r128"
    #VideoRam    8192
    # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection

If you still have problems, check the content of /var/log/XFree86.0.log for 
more details...
