from your log:


	XFree86 Version 4.2.0 (Red Hat Linux release: 4.2.0-72) / X 			Window=20
System
	(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600)
	[...]

you are apparently still running your old server.

did you also install the packages from "extras" found on the=20
snapshot-download page?

these files:
http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/extras/extras-4.2.99.2.tar.bz2
http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/extras/libxaa.a.bz2

see http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/extras/README.extras and=20
http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/extras/README.libxaa for details


from your XF86Config:

	Section "Device"
         	# no known options
	        Identifier   "Radeon"
         	Driver       "ati"

		^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
choose Driver "radeon" here, although it doesn't really matter


	        VendorName   "ATI Radeon AGP"
         	BoardName     "ATI Radeon AGP"
	        Option      "AGPMode" "4"
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

it's better to comment this line out for the time being, AGPMode 4 can=20
lead to instabilities


	        #BusID
	EndSection


hope this helps
