I´m running Xorg 7.1 on Debian unstable, so I can´t say if you have a Problem with Xorg 6.9. But looking at your xorg.conf I get the feeling that it is just your config that is messed up.
I woul recommend using the aticonfig tool to try to get an initial working xorg.conf and work on from that. It should have been installed with the ATI proprietary drivers and has quite a long help message. Try running it with these options initially (And remove anything pertaining to the vesa driver from your config first): aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf This should hopefully get you up and running and you can start to tweak on from there. Playing around with that tool you can find a lot of otherwise undocumented options to the driver.
