That's my main problem - I can't find a real reason too.
Yes I tried 16Bit, I even tried turning on and off most of the options
for the graphics card.
I had a similar problem with xorg-6.9, which was caused bei the mga_hal
module, but then the error message directed me to the problem.

To speak simple, I think either the mode is really to much for my
monitor (but its maximum/optimum is 1280x1024 at 75Hz) or for the G450 with
this driver.

Maybe these lines from the log have something to do with it:

Requesting insufficient memory window!: start: 0xeee00000 end:
0xefefffff size 0x2000000
(EE) Cannot find empty range to map base to
(WW) MGA(0): Video BIOS info block not detected!
