It is correct that it won't work with your release, from our last changelog:

    * New upstream beta release.
      - Support for RadeonHD older than 5xxx are dropped!
        Namely the following series have been removed:
        - RadeonHD 2000
        - RadeonHD 3000
        - RadeonHD 4000
        So we close bug reports where only these older ASICs are 
involved. Users
        affected by this should switch to the free radeon driver.
