Let's see if I got it right:
* your computer has 2 graphic cards:
* 1 S3, which Xorg detects it as a Cirrus
* and 1 ATI, which is detected under Xorg but not configured in xorg.conf

When the system boots, one of the cards shows the graphical boot sequence and stops there, though it lets you select the console with Alt-F1..F5. The problem is that Xorg doesn't seem to boot and Alt-F7 shows nothing.

Can you please explain:
* how many monitors do you have?
* how are they attached to each card?
* which one of the monitors/cards is used in each case?

Please, can you confirm this is right?

On the other hand, could you please try to remove one of the cards and try again? Then, but it back, remove the other card and try once more. Thus we can check if both cards are working properly by themselves.

Thanks!
