I have a 9200SE, 128MB ddr ram, for almost 2 years now, running 
xorg-6.8-901 on a very heavily hacked FC2 system.  Zero problems, none 
in that time and I'm not even using the ati drivers, just the linux 
stuff.  Even tuxracer runs pretty good.

But, I have never, ever, booted to runlevel 5 which it appears you are.  
I boot to runlevel 3, login and do 'startx' from VT0.

stupid bounce rules.  I do use spamassassin too. :-)
