I think what people are saying is that a company deliberately lies to its customers(calling this manipulating the facts softens the notion substantially). When a company cannot even get its own customers (who no doubt get substantial discounts to hand out their endorsements) to say the things it wants them to say, you know they are in trouble.
So, erm what exactly is the problem? As far as I can see from the mailing lists, the radeon mobility 7500 is fully supported (i.e. there is XV acceleration). Some people even have dri working on it! So what exactly is the problem with yours?
Check out http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/ and you can ask questions there, but I am sure the answer is lurking somewhere there. If all else fails, download xfree from CVS.
I did it for my radeon 9000 and I even got to see the all new red, translucent cursor, which will come as standard in new XFree releases!
