Thanks Michel!

Unfortunatly I haven't been able to capture a log from startx
when using fbdev.  

I tried startx &> xlog, but that of course resulted in a kernel
panic, following which fsck put my home directory and everything
in it in /lost&found.... 

I've recovered most of my important stuff, but not the xlog of
course, and I'm a little gunshy of trying it again.  Do you
think it would be safer to do /tmp/Xlog...  Still it seems like
playing with fire after what happened last time.


Here's what I've got.

first cat /proc/pci:

here's the driver section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (the fbdev
version):

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Generic Graphics Device"
	BusID "PCI:0:18:0"
	Driver "fbdev"
EndSection

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

And here's how I've got it for the ati device:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Generic Graphics Device"
	BusID "PCI:0:18:0"
	Driver "ati"
	Option "UseFBDev"
EndSection

Finally here's the log from startx with the ati device:
