More problems after upgrading to 7.3

[Lars Stokholm]

pciconf says about my video card:

====================
drm0 at pci1:0:0:  class=0x030000 card=0x85001787 chip=0x4e481002 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'ATI Technologies Inc'
    device     = 'Radeon 9800 Pro (R350)'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA
none1 at pci1:0:1: class=0x038000 card=0x85011787 chip=0x4e681002 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'ATI Technologies Inc'
    device     = 'Radeon 9800 Pro (R350) - Secondary'
    class      = display
====================

And the output of xrandr:
