I finally managed to borrow my brother's 9600 XT card and I'm now happily running on the DVI port. So it appears that the fglrx driver does not support the DVI port on my older 8500 LE.

I know that there are two different type of DVI port: one digital-only and another one that can be used with an adaptor to connect a vga cable
for a crt monitor.
Maybe this is tha differences between the two cards.

In XFree86.0.log I have this:

(II) fglrx(0): Primary head:
 Monitor   -- NONE
 Connector -- DVI-I
 DAC Type  -- TVDAC/ExtDAC
 TMDS Type -- Internal
 DDC Type  -- DVI_DDC
(II) fglrx(0): Secondary head:
 Monitor   -- CRT
 Connector -- VGA
 DAC Type  -- Primary
 TMDS Type -- NONE
 DDC Type  -- VGA_DDC
 As you can see, mt radeon9000 has a DVI-I, but I don't know wich type is.
