I just installed a new Radeon 9600 pro into my system yesterday, and the 3D driver (xorg 7.0/mesa 6.4.1/libdrm 2.0) seems to work very well, at least with older games like Soldier of Fortune and Quake 2. I'm going to try Quake 4 demo tonight.
Configuration is similar to older radeons: generate the file with "X -configure", change driver to "radeon", add DRI section, set AGPMode to 8 and EnablePageFlip to 1 (not required but gives a nice speed boost), add resolutions, screen refresh rates and correct keyboard layout.
Also, make sure that you don't have any libraries or kernel modules from the ATI binary driver package messing things up.

the Radeon(4) documentation (the guide above) is horrible updated, i'm guessing that 4 means it's from xfree86 4.x

That "guide" is actually the man page of the driver, so 4 means section 4 of the man pages.
