There is something very strange about this.  fglrx should not be
loading the intel driver.  At the same point, I get "(WW) fglrx: No
matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0 at 1:0:1)".  Could you
see what happens if you blacklist the intel driver?

For reference, here is the same section of my xorg log.
