a) is "compaq" really spelled "compac" in Germany?
b) I would suggest checking your kernel configuration to ensure 'mtrr'
is turned on -- mainly since it dies here. If it is on, try turning it
off, recompiling, and try X again. (If it works with mtrr turned off but
not turned on, then there is a good chance it will run slowly compared
to other systems with a working mtrr system.)

BTW -- your XFree86.0.log said your kernel was
2.2.something-presomething. Are you sure you are booting 2.4.0-test10?
