[gentoo-user] glxgears with no ... gears?!

I've updated xorg following all relevant instructions by gentoo devs on an old 
laptop and when I run glxgears I get no graphic and pedestrian speeds:

$ glxgears
629 frames in 5.0 seconds = 125.622 FPS
629 frames in 5.0 seconds = 125.718 FPS
627 frames in 5.0 seconds = 125.377 FPS

If I maximise the window, still no gears just a black terminal window and I 
get:

93 frames in 5.0 seconds = 18.474 FPS

It's never been that bad before.  I've noticed that emerge -uDv world pulled 
in xorg-drivers and it also emerged xf86-video-ati.  I attach the list of the 
packages that were emerged today and my Xorg.0.log, just in case you see 
something amiss in there.

Please ask if you need more info.

PS.  I have no xorg.conf, but can post the *.fdi files if needed.
