Do you have an up-to-date Etch system? Your Fontpath and ModulePath
entries look like you are still on Xorg 6.9. Maybe your problem is
caused by having a mix of Xorg 7.0 and Xorg 6.9 packages installed. I am
also puzzled by the fact that your Xorg.0.log is from September 2005 and
that it lists completely different font paths. Either something is very
inconsistent in your system or you accidentally copied older files in
your mail.
Please post the output of "X -version".
