Ooops... Jumped the gun there.

Though fglrxinfo was reporting that the appropriate driver was in use, I
found the graphics to be a bit too slow. So I checked glxgears and found
that I was getting frame rates of ~300.

I reinstalled the ATI driver (8.01) only to find that the blank screen
on login as before. .xsession-errors ends with the line 'Waiting 10
seconds for Xgl to start'. Nothing more.

FWIW: Was also getting a gnome-settings-daemon error at startup (bug
199960).

Have now reverted to no Xgl and metacity. Performance is back to normal
(1700 fps in glxgears).
