Works on 10.1-STABLE, amd64, "ATI Radeon HD 5450" (ChipID = 0x68f9),
devd option enabled, no xorg.conf.  Straightforward setup: one screen,
one keyboard, one mouse.

Desktop usage (xterm, Firefox) works.  MPlayer with Xvideo or GL
works.

Xorg.0.log looks sane, except for the curiosity of devd "recognizing"
my screen as an extra mouse, but to no ill effect.  (My keyboard
and mouse are plugged into the built-in hub of the monitor.  Apparently
the screen also has some "EIZO USB HID Monitor" USB device.)

For keyboard configuration, I've kept my old scheme: setxkbmap and
xset in xdm/Xsetup_0.  Alternatively, you can call them from
~/.xsession or ~/.xinitrc, respectively.  I don't know why people
insist on messing with more complicated schemes.
