At bootup, I get the following (saved in dmesg)
mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings
mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs.
mtrr: corrected configuration.
and I get the following in the X log file. Can I ignore it?
(WW) RADEON(0): DRI init changed memory map, adjusting ...
(WW) RADEON(0): MC_FB_LOCATION was: 0xd7ffd000 is: 0xd7ffd000
(WW) RADEON(0): MC_AGP_LOCATION was: 0xffc0 is: 0xffc0

yes.

The following appears in the X log...
(II) LoadModule: freetype
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module freetype
(II) UnloadModule: freetype
(EE) Failed to load module freetype (module does not exist, 0)

you can ignore that too. freetype is not needed.

Due to bad experiences with fglrx, I'm using the open source ATI
drivers. I get the following in the X log...
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory) (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering

you are missing a file. Try re-installing mesa.

In xorg.conf, I've commented out all fontpaths except...
FontPath /usr/share/fonts/misc/
FontPath /usr/share/fonts/Type1/
FontPath /usr/share/fonts/100dpi/
FontPath /usr/share/fonts/75dpi/
...but the log still shows...
(WW) The directory /usr/share/fonts/OTF does not exist.
Entry deleted from font path.
(**) FontPath set to:
/usr/share/fonts/misc/,
/usr/share/fonts/Type1/,
/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/,
/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/,
/usr/share/fonts/misc/,
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/,
/usr/share/fonts/Type1/,
/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/,
/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/,
built-ins

Any comments/suggestions?
yeah. remove all font paths. They are not needed anymore.
