My first choice would to use the dirivers supplied by Xfree..
Xfree 4.3.0 has support for 3d ATI Drivers...which are almost as fast as the ATI binaries... not to mention they are more stable..
However if you really need the ATI binaries... try downloading 3.2.8 fglrx drivers...which seemed to be the unified driver for many of the ATI cards.. hopefully it will be compatible.

If you don't have a precompiled matching kernel module... you will have to have kernel source so it can link its binaries correctly.
The drivers you mention are for the Radeon based FireGL cards. Lloyd was asking about the older pre-Radeon based FireGL cards. There are *no* drivers in the XFree86 source tree for those cards. The two chip families are as different as x86 and PowerPC. :)

Does anyone know if a driver for the ATI FireGL4 card suitable for XFree86 4.3.0 and the 2.4.20-18.9 kernel (RedHat 9) is available? The latest driver (11/26/2002) from ATI (binary only) does not work (a whole list of incompatibilities). It was built for XFree86 4.2.0 and libc 6.2 (glibc 2.2). ATI does provide newer drivers, but only for their newer cards. Those drivers don't appear to work either with this older card.
Thanks.
