Try turning off GLX.  Comment out the "Load GLX" line in the modules section. 
It worked for me on my debian system.  I never figured out why, but its worth 
a shot.  

I don't have a composite out on my card, so I don't know if your problem is 
the same.  I was finding that whenever I tried to use the SVideo out, X would 
crash with a signal 11 until I disabled the GLX module.

Let me know if it works.  It would be nice to know that somebody else on earth 
was having the same problem as me.
