ati is just a wrapper for several different ati drivers. In any case, if
the driver detects it as a m6, it probably is - those ati drivers are
fairly similar but I doubt it would work at all with the wrong driver.

Doesn't matter, as the driver will only set speed based on what the chip 
reports as supported in the capabilities bits.
