Dear Michel,

I'm sorry, from a programmer's point of view it behaves like it's in a loop.
I'm always ready to learn ;) 
I just want to add that I do not need to run a heavy-duty 3D application; I
only need to turn off the xdm service. Then, from console I run startx and
switch back to console. When I'll try to switch back to X (vt 7) X will hang.
Same behavior of course, occurs when I start xdm (kde), login and switch to
vt1.
X will hang the minute I'll try to back to X.

All logs were captured during X hanging. I have no choice when it hangs, so I
reboot the machine. These are the logs which X reproduces. I checked the
.xsession-errors file, but nothing significant there.
As for xf86-video-ati, I'm using version 6.9.0.

Since I'm using Gentoo, I can recompile anything with the relevant USE flag.
So if you have a debug USE flag somewhere, I can turn it on. Just tell me how
to help.

Thanks again !
Doron.
