Flavio, I've just read that you managed to get the ATI driver working with the DVI output! That gives me hope ;)

Exactly. But note that I got DVI working with X.Org's radeon driver, *not* with fglrx.

[...] I have a few questions concerning changing to x.org.
Have you experienced any problems ?

I'd say less problems than with XFree86. ;)

Is the XFree 4.3.0 automatically replaced with x.org (also when invoking startx or when using kdm)?
Is XFree automatically removed ?

Of course. You add the Ubuntu archive to your sources.list and start apt-getting the relevant pieces until all the dependencies are satisfied. At that point, everything from XFree86 should be gone.
