The end of (EE)

Yay! Turning AIGLX off has nailed my __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 error. Celebration time.

Here's my tuned little command to find errors in logs:

egrep -Hn '\(EE\)|\(WW\)' /var/log/*.log

Xgl.0.log is now error free. Well, that's a start.

Unfortunately /var/log/Xorg.93.log and /var/log/gdm/:0.log still have the warning about the second PCI instance, but no error at least:

(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found

But unfortunately my original error still remains:

dell5100:/var/log # LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fgl_glxgears
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable failed
Error: couldn't get fbconfig

But for now I'm happy to let sleeping dogs lie, as everything else seems fine. Time to backup and then move onto the TV card.
