I know at least one more guy who has this problems (9000 pro this time).

Mine is:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Radeon 9000"
        Driver          "radeon"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
        VideoRam        65536
#       Option          "UseFBDev"              "true"
        Option          "AGPSize"               "64"
        Option          "AGPMode"               "4"
        Option          "MonitorLayout"         "CRT,NONE"
EndSection

I don't have framebuffer compiled into kernel.
