This bug is the same as #60422.

 Add this to xorg.conf to resolve the problem:

Section "Extensions"
        Option "Composite" "0"
EndSection

Same problem here. I suspect the fglrx module has not been caught up
with the kernel release yet. May have wait a few days :(

Still fails. It is still installing an old version of fgrlx (7.1.0) and
Xorg is 7.1.1.

Same problem here, after successful upgrade from dapper to edgy, on ati radeon x1600. I get mesa on fglrxinfo, even though composite is set to off.

this sounds very similar (identical) to bug #57716.

Closing, since 6.10 is EOL. Fglrx supports composite nowadays anyway.
