Ok, this fix works. That was the problem i was having initialazing the
driver in HEAD.
This is an X300.

By the way is Xvideo overlay working for anyone with an X300? I just
get a blank screen, and xvideo is enabled according to xvinfo...

In other side of things, i got some redrawing problems. I don't know
very well how to describe them. For example, in the text input boxes
in firefox the text is not redrawed correctly, orin  the root window
background is slow redrawing. itself And i think this is related with
the message appearing in Xorg.0.log after X starts:
