I also have an ATI Radeon VE QY (rev. 0). The main difference is that mine is
on 01:00:00, and it has 64 MB of memory.
Your XF86Config-4 looks almost identical to mine, except that I don't specify
the BusID or the VideoRam - XFree86 auto detects that just fine for me.
However, it looks from your log like you might have two vide cards - a Mach64
also? so auto-detection might not pick up the right one. If you specify one
of these parameters wrong, that might be causing your problem. I would at
least remove the VideoRam line and let XFree86 auto-detect that.
My XFree86.0.log looks very similar to yours as well, except that it doesn't
seg fault. I have attached my log from just before yours seg faults through
the end, though I don't know if it will be helpful.
My /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o is dated 2003-02-25, if that
makes a difference to you. From your log it looks like this module might be
causing your problems. It belongs to the xserver-xfree86 package.
I hope you find this helpful.
