    Without looking in too much detail at your log, I wouldn't go for
    installing the drivers via alien. I also have a Radeon 7200 with the
    following (from lspci -v):

    0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R100
    QD [Radeon 7200] (prog-if 00 [VGA])
            Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 7000/Radeon
            Flags: bus master, VGA palette snoop, stepping, 66MHz, medium
    devsel, latency 64, IRQ 16
            Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
            I/O ports at c000 [size=256]
            Memory at e5000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]
            Capabilities: [58] AGP version 2.0
            Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2

    Do you make sure that the radeon module is loaded, 'lsmod|grep radeon'?
    Below I paste my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4:

    This layout works for me, compare it to yours, I am quite certain that
    there should only be a configuration error.
    Btw:

    XFree86 Version 4.3.0.1 (Debian 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 20040928112350 fabbione@fabbione.
    net)
    Release Date: 15 August 2003
    X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6

    If that doesn't solve your problem, I can also post the output of
    /var/log/XFree86.0.log.

    Good luck,

    Andreas
