There is support available, but ATI has not allowed it to be integrated with X.org. So blame ATI/AMD (or ask them to give a permission to integrate the 2D support for X1300 - X1950 -series of cards, which has been already written but under an NDA so the creator needs permission from ATI/AMD).

Changed in xserver-xorg-video-ati:
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed

Note that it's been several months already, but no answer from AMD.
