Card/driver from xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "radeon"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "ATI Radeon 9200SE"
EndSection

Disabling the following has led to a stable system:

Section "Module"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "extmod"
#       Load  "fbdevhw"
#       Load  "glx"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "freetype"
        Load  "type1"
#       Load  "dri"
EndSection

When I was struggling with this, I found a few "X consuming 99% CPU"
bugs on X.org's site similar to my situation. Not sure anything ever
got resolved there.
