Attached.

This box boots to a command line. "startx," and after, did not add 
anything to dmesg.

I have a hunch: modesetting is done someplace else and the results
passed to the ati driver. The new ati driver requires modesetting to
work, and work properly. Here, modesetting hasn't worked right in years.
For example, with the vesa driver I get one mode that works; the rest
looks like giant backslashes.

Incidently, slackware-current went back to xorg-server-1.13.4
Tried it: still same problem.
