ati and radeon are the same driver.  ati is just a wrapper that loads radeon,
r128, or mach64 depending on what chip is present in your computer.  There is
no  support for tv-out on r4xx cards yet.  Also, there is no tv-out support for
any chips in the drm modesetting code, so you'll have to boot with nomodeset on
the kernel command line, to use the ddx modesetting code.  Then you can try:
Option "R4xxATOM" "TRUE"
in the device section of your config which will allow you to use the atombios
tv-out setup, however, I haven't tested this so YMMV.
