If it isn't solved, then you might have had 2 problems in the beginning, and only one of them got fixed in xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.6.19x. But the thing is that MergedFB doesn't matter anymore now (it has already been removed IIRC). Upstream developers released a new largely-reworked driver with support for randr-1.2. It means that now you can enable/disable/resize/move multiple outputs at runtime with xrandr without configuring anything in xorg.conf (except from a Virtual line to create a large virtual screen where outputs will be placed). See http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/9846.html for some help. There are no packages for this new ATI driver on powerpc yet. So it'd be easier to build it manually. See http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/10936.html and replace 'intel' with 'ati'. Once it is installed, move your xorg.conf away, the server should be able to start without any config, and your old config would probably confuse it. Let me know if you need help.
