Ok, Here is what I did:

Booted the Intrepid Live CD.
Watched as X failed to configure.  (See Xorg.0.log output attached above.)
Hit <ctrl><alt><f1> to get a TTY
Logged in, Configured the Network by hand (cuz I'm not registered for DHCP).

Fetched Tormod's  backport:
xserver-xorg-video-radeon_6.10.0.99+git20090114.0e69068a-0ubuntu0tormod~intrepid_i386.deb
(from 
http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-ati/)

did dpkg -i to install solely that file.

Hit <ctrl><alt><f7> to get the X connection.
Hit <ctrl><alt><backspace> to restart X.

Watched as X configured and started up just fine.

Attached is the Xorg.0.log file from the successful start-up, changing ONLY the 
rev of
xserver-xorg-video-radeon


** Attachment added: "Successful config of X with updated 
xserver-xorg-video-radeon"
