Have you tried creating a modeline for your monitor? That is what fixed it for
me, although I didn't have the IO errors like you are getting.
From this part of your Xorg log:
(II) RADEON(0): clock: 108.0 MHz Image Size: 338 x 270 mm
(II) RADEON(0): h_active: 1280 h_sync: 1328 h_sync_end 1440 h_blank_end 1688
h_border: 0
(II) RADEON(0): v_active: 1024 v_sync: 1025 v_sync_end 1028 v_blanking:
1066v_border: 0
I would try and have a section like this in my xorg.conf
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Standardbildschirm"
ModeLine "1280x1024" 108.0 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028
1066
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "ATI Technologies, Inc. RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600
M10]"
Monitor "Standardbildschirm"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x854" "1280x1024"
EndSubSection
EndSection
