Maybe someone could commit an experimental xf86-video-avivo driver?
I don't know if it would require kernel support.  On my Asus-A6JE
(Mobility X1450, RV515) using the VESA driver:

#pciconf -lv
vgapci0 at pci1:0:0:       class=0x030000 card=0x12311043 chip=0x71861002 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'ATI Technologies Inc.'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA

#dmesg
