Did you try the normal radeon driver (not radeonhd)?
It supports the RV515 chip used by the X1550, too.
Keep in mind that normal radeon driver is called x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati
now.
If you load the drm.ko and radeon.ko (and maybe agp.ko) kernel models with
this driver, you'll have accellerated 3D as well as 2D (both XAA and the newer
EXA). Works like a charm on my Radeon X 1650 Pro, and should work with your
card as well.
Tried to substitute the driver with ati and loading radeon.ko (which
automatically loaded drm.ko) and had the same results as the plain
radeon driver. X starts up once in a while, but the screen goes
to about half of normal brightness and the view is moved down and to the
right.
Do you have a modeline in your xorg.conf? If so, try taking it out. Or try
running 'X -configure' from the console to generate a new basic
xorg.conf. Some monitors come with a button or control to automatically tune
them to the video source. If you have that it might help as well. If not, try
x11/xvidtune.
No, there are no modelines, just the basic configuration I posted
in the first mail.
I also tried X -configure again (after loading radeon.ko and drm.ko
manually). It produced a configfile just fine, but running X
with that file locked the machine up again.
