Well, I'm using radeonhd right now on a
[kaduk@periphrasis /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/ath/public]$ uname -a
FreeBSD periphrasis.mit.edu 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #4: Wed May
14 00:27:26 EDT 2008
root@periphrasis.mit.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PERIPHRASIS  amd64

I don't think I have anything that uses 3d installed at the moment, but
the 2d seems like it's getting accelerated (non-accelerated dual-monitors
can be painfully slow).
