Have you run "aticonfig --initial"? This is what I did when I did a fresh install of xorg the other day: 1.) Download hwd -> "pacman -Sy hwd" 2.) Update hwd -> "hwd -u" 3.) Create an initial xorg.conf -> "hwd -xa" 3.) Download the ATI drivers -> "pacman -S ati-fglrx" 4.) Configure xorg.conf -> "aticonfig --initial" 5.) Set resolutions -> "aticonfig --resolutions=1024x768,800x600,640x480" 6.) Start X 7.) Check to see if drivers are installed -> "fglrxinfo" 8.) If you see stuff about ATI and such, you are good. If you see anything about MESA, then something went wrong.
