I have two Section "Device"s. I'll paste the following relevent bits.

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Card0"
	Driver		"vesa"
	VendorName	"ATI Technologies Inc"
	BoardName	"RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200M]"
	BusID		"PCI:1:5:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"aticonfig-Device[0]"
	Driver		"fglrx"
EndSection


I really don't see a problem. Perhaps wmii and fglrx conflict somehow? I
tried googling but no one else seems to share this problem.
