Xgl doesn't start with fglrx

Hi,
I have a problem with Xgl and the newest fglrx driver from the ati homepage.
I used the ubuntu wiki tutorial to install fglrx. So far so good, fglrxinfo seems to be nice
" ATI Technologies Inc."....
So far so bad:
Xgl doesn't start. It just hangs with a "loading" cursor.
My approach was to change the /etc/X11/X symlink to Xgl, which works fine with the old ati driver, but without hardware acceleration.
Where to look for logfiles? What to do now?

My xorg.conf (I hope I don't flood someone) :
