Summary: X is hosed.
A couple of weeks back, I made the transition to the current versions
of xorg-server and ati-drivers, i.e. the versions in the message
subject. I had to do a bit of work with xorg.conf before all was
good. If I recall details, keyboard and mouse weren't working and,
after correcting that, fonts weren't being found. All is now working
fine. Below is my xorg.conf. Hope it helps.

This xorg.conf won't load ati-drivers at all. If it works, it is probably
running with another driver (radeon or vesa perhaps). You need to run
"aticonfig --initial" as root first.
Or he might have it in autoload already and it gets loaded at boot time?

When I tried aticonfig with my original xorg.conf, it got a seg fault.
The same thing happens when I use David's.
Things are not going well.
You should try the latest ati-drivers then. 8.552 is pretty old and
very buggy. The newer versions are also buggy, but less so then the old
ones.
