Ok.

JFTR: It's much easier to compare two extra files than compare
(wrapped) text inside mails. ;)

Yes, it's just "DefaultColorDepth 24" in the "Working" xorg.conf
versus "DefaultColorDepth 16" in the "Non-wokring" xorg.conf.

The identified modes (1920x1200, 1024x768,...) are not used at all
(they are deactivated as indicated by the '#' sign), so I'm confused
too. ;) Seems to be a change in kernel and/or fglrx drivers. *hmpf*

Thanks for your investigations and report, Martin!

> Thanks for all the help, hard work, and sheer brilliance.

You are welcome. :)
