(**) CHROME(0): Option "VBEModes" "true"
(**) CHROME(0): Option "DisableIRQ" "true"
(**) CHROME(0): Option "NoAGPFor2D" "true"

Why are you enabling VBEModes ?
Why are you disabling IRQ ?
Why are you disabling part of AGP ?
You should not need to play with the default driver options. In your 
case, only the EXA related option need to be modified.

Read the following page to understand how to enable EXA and get better 
performance with a compositing manager :
