Yes. This happened to me also when updating my old XFree86 just today. That must have changed recently. Sorry.

In this moment I succeed to run X with the radeon driver, disabling
all the Modules and then enabling one by one.

Many congratulations!

This looks fairly normal. The glxinfo should say "direct rendering: yes". If not then see:

I have been using Xorg Server libraries and modules recently and have had 2169FPS. I switched back to Xfree today and had the same speed. Then I remembered the libraries and modules from Xorg were still in /usr/local. So here are the results with XFree86 Xserver using Xorg libs and Xorg modules:

That was the same as before! Then I took out the modules and had about 900FPS until I took out the Xorg libraries left in /usr/local. I took out the /usr/local and then I got the same 550FPS with plain Xfree all with glxinfo 'yes'. I hope they update the DRI inside Xfree soon because that works too! Anyway, I went back to Xorg X11R6.8.2 again.

I built my own Xorg or there is a version at ubuntu that is supposed to work easily with Debian. If you want even faster GLX then the Xorg is much faster than the fglrx.

Congratulations again.
