Binary package hint: xorg
I recently upgraded from Edgy to Feisty via `update-manager -c`. With the upgrade to Feisty came X.org 7.2, which seems to have broken support for the fglrx/ati drivers with the Radeon 9200. I can use the radeon drivers just fine, but they don't provide any support for hardware acceleration.

Cause of the problem:

The problem seems to lay in the fact that the Radeon 9200 registers as two PCI addresses (one for VGA output and one for DVI output, AFAIK). While the radeon drivers don't have a problem with it, the ati/fglrx drivers complain about there being no Device section for the PCI address that has the Device section that comes last. I'm suspecting the problem is in the driver, not xorg itself, as radeon has no problem with the card.

I've tried:
Swapping the order for the Device sections around
Enabling and disabling the framebuffer
Only having one Device section

Some way of 'disabling' one of the PCI addresses? This would stop xorg thinking that there are two devices that need helping.
Could you attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Thank you
If you want to use the radeon driver, have you removed the xorg-driver-fglrx package?
