Well, on my machine (IBM ThinkPad T42p with ATI FireGL 2 - M10)
nothing changes: with or without the "dri" module in xorg.conf X.Org
6.9 freezes. Actually, with the "dri" module in xorg.conf (and note
[1]), X.Org 6.9 doesn't start either, i.e. I got the black screen as
soon as xdm starts or I manually start X.
I previously reported that rc3 works as expected and I was wrong: X
freezed as well, while with 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 I've no problems since
this morning.
So, I'd say that I'm experiencing two bugs: the first is a general
X.Org freezing (withouth DRI enabled or with DRI enabled and no
"radeon" kernel module), the second is a specific problem with the DRI
r300 driver (this should be bug #345929 [2]).
If needed, ask for all necessary informations.
Thx, bye,

[1] I tried with xlibmesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-dri, but no
differences. Moreover, I don't know why r300_dri.so is not
present in xlibmesa-dri, since X.Org 6.9 ships it:
