I've got a radeon7500 but iirc I had to upgrade to XFree 4.3.0 to get it 
  to work properly (NetBSD 1.6.1 comes packaged with 4.2.1, I checked 
out xsrc from the NetBSD repository via cvs, and build it with make 
install).  It works well so far.  XFree DRI (hardware 3D OpenGL 
rendering) is not supported out of box.  There seems to be work underway 
to get it implemented on NetBSD aswell, please see 
http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/ (from the guy who has implemented 
it on FreeBSD already).  GL rendering through the MESA lib (software GL) 
works, though, albeit slowly.  If you don't want to play games, or other 
high-performance OpenGL applications, that will work fine (like, some 3d 
modelling application or similar).
