Similar problems
I'm on debian sid with an X800 pro and get the same thing except 'result is' was 6 with xserver 1.3.0 and 7 with 1.1.1; as the driver works fine for me on 1.1.1 I'm assuming the above is not the source of the difficulties.
What distro/version do you use? Is this on xserver 1.3.0 or others too?
I get the same results with DRI disabled.
My experience is as follows:
For xserver 1.1.1 (currently in debian testing) fglrx 8.37.6 works fine.
On 1.3.0 I get the same as you: 'freeze' and blank screen which makes my monitor say 'no signal' and shut off.
If I boot in recovery console mode and then continue the boot gnome loads up fine as usual, but if I log out or attempt to restart it locks up as it does on normal boot.
Also, in comparing my working Xorg.0.log for 1.1.1 and the broken one from 1.3.0 I notice that the 1.3.0 suggests it thinks I have an extra monitor?
I assume this shouldn't be a cause of your problems since you mentioned running a dual head setup.
Hopefully we can nail down where this problem is coming from and submit a bug report to the appropriate project.
