Author ATI graphic card under FC4 - problem

Hello,

I am using a ATI Radeon 9550 (R350 chipset) with Fedora Core 4.
I'm using a Xorg.conf file written by me, based on the original
ATI file and now the DRI acceleration works, and very good.

My problem occurs when I exit from the KDE desktop and I end my
work session. As usual the system kills the X server to relaunch
a new one... but my computer hangs, it is completely blocked and
I cannot switch to another console.

I don't have this problem without the ATI driver and without DRI
acceleration and I didn't have this problem under Fedora Core 3,
while using the ATI driver.

Can you help me ?

I attached the Xorg.conf file I use.
I downloaded the following package from the ATI site:
fglrx_6_8_0-8.16.20-1.i386

Under FC3 I used and older version that gave me errors when I
installed it, that's why I dowloaded the new one.

Thank you very much.

Best regards
