I can confirm this bug, even in 8.04 Alpha 5. (The xorg.conf of Ubuntu 7.10 is OK.)

This bug is the root cause of the bugs reported on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+bug/194963 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+bug/195918

Workaround by manually adding "Defaultdepth 24" to the the part "Section "Screen"" of the xorg.conf.

Very annoying bug. Please solve before 8.04 LTS.

I have the feeling the xorg.conf for ATI / fglrx is not (exclusively) written by dexconf nor /var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg.postinst, so it must be solved somewhere else.
