It dies while it's checking the monitor resolutions with DDC. It's a bug in the card's BIOS. To avoid it, add
Option DDC "False"
to xorg.conf in the
Device
section for the card. This prevents the card from using DDC to try to find out the resolutions the monitor supports. In addition, be aware that doing this requires that you generate modelines for your monitor; you can do this with hwd, redirect the output to a file, and add the necessary to your
Monitor
section in xorg.conf.
ETA: Also, there is some kind of problem in some versions of the glint driver that causes it not to correctly determine the size of the video memory. To fix this, use
Option VideoRam "8192"
in xorg.conf in the
Device
section for the card.
