Ok, thank you for testing. I think your problem is similar to the one
reported upstream at the URL above. I just talked to the maintainer and
he would like a log with debug enabled. So could you try again after adding
Option "ModeDebug" "Yes"
in the "device" section of your xorg.conf. You should get a much
detailled /var/log/Xorg.0.log. We should either post it here or directly
at the URL above. If you want me to take care of posting things there,
let me know (you'll have to open an account to do so).
