I don't know if my system was proper one to make tests but...
Wow that was pain in the ass to go thru all of this X configuration
(again..:P)
So. The steps I made. I wanted to test this on my hardware. I've
installed all the packages for my arch (i386) but then it broke my X. So
I only left this ones:
xserver-common_1.12.4-6+deb7u5_all.deb
xserver-xorg-core_1.12.4-6+deb7u5_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-core-dbg_1.12.4-6+deb7u5_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-dev_1.12.4-6+deb7u5_i386.deb
And after I reconfigured my X server after crash:
I had no permission to run X: sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common -> Anyone
Then I could run X but:
There were no direct rendering. And Amd Control Center reported that
there is a problem with driver and it cannot start. Steam reported no
direct rendering.
So after I installed again proprietary drivers from ATI ^^
System seems to work glxgears a bit more laggy then before but
fgl_glxgears served with ATI drivers are extremely fast. The only one
problem is that AMD Control Center still doesn't work. No error no
window no nothing.
Steam works, steam games also working.
It works with and without xorg.conf.
OK. After reconfiguring the whole thing from the begining I managed to
run amd control center. So everything looks and works again like before
with 2d and 3d acceleration.

driver:
Is any additional info needed? Maybe some other packages versions. Just
give info. I will just use your packages versions for now and just wait
for update.
I think I will stick more to stable packages in the future... Less
experiments...
Kisses,
