I've the same issue with a 915G and the same card.
Kudzu recognized the hardware but the X freeze at the boot time.
Fortunately my motherboard provide an onboard graphic adapter and it 
works (if I remove ATI card!)
I can't say with certainty if the problem is PCI-Express (but also on 
board adapter is PCI-E) or Xorg-X11, but I can say that I haven't any 
problem
with FC2 and ATI card plugged in and working, even if I don't think 
PCI-E bus was exploited properly because the system recognized it like a 
VESA adapter.
