/var/log contents with failed fglrx data

after the 9.1.2006 (local time) update, the problem still persists for me.
hardware:
compaq presarion x1400, centrino platform, mobility radeon 9200 (X recognized
it as a
9000, and that what it's actually is (compaq did some evil marketing) )

description:
after initial boot graphics, when X should load, the hdd lights and sound
indicates some work
is being done, but the screen stays blank.
X cannot be exited from that point on (control-alt-backspace,
control-alt-F1..F4 seems to
have no effect), and a hard boot to safe mode, and editing the xorg.conf is
required

attached:
the contents of /var/log (the files with the relevant time stamp),
+ the working xorg.conf file, + the xorg.conf with fglrx i've tried to use
currently i'm using the oss "ati" driver, and it seems to be working (although
it's
slow, even with exa enabled - this is not a complaint, but an observation)

thanks for your hard work!
