Yes, all of those chips are still supported by the generic modesetting 
drivers and even the old userspace Xorg drivers. The only thing that is 
not supported any longer is hardware-accelerated 3d rendering. However, 
this has not worked anyway, as Mesa has dropped support for those chips 
a long time ago.
