Then you have to take a look at the X server start log in /var/log. To record, 
you need avview and the km kernel module.
And yes, compiling that just plain sucks. However, you may want to try without 
ffmpeg first to take a look if the video can actually be displayed.

And yes: gatos (included in x.org >=6.9) is the only road to that goal, the 
binary-only driver from ATI doesn't do anything but TV-Out.
