First, XF86Setup will open the display because it is using stock VGA
graphics, which every card supports. Second, XF86Setup is 3.3.x-only,
which indicates this is the version of XFree86 you are trying to use.

Remove XFree86 3.3.x and install 4.0.x from the ports. The ATI
All-In-Wonder 128 Pro uses the Rage 128 chipset (I believe), and I don't
think this is supported in 3.3.x. 

When 4.0.x is installed, configure the server to use the "r128" driver,
and all should be well.

I don't know about the tuner, though. Good luck with that.
