Hi Xavier,

thank you very much for your instant reply!

Hoping this is more convenient, I've put it on the Web at:

http://www.fsavigny.de/privat/xorg/Xorg.0.log

I have done so; the results were virtually identical (there were very
brief horizontal colour stripes before the screen went dark, but
otherwise the behaviour was identical). (Of course, the log is from a
run with this 0.2.904 driver.)

Thank you again for your responsiveness!

Best regards,

Florian



PS: Just in case (all information was collected after the X run with
the upgraded driver, like the log file):
