Hi, how I can set an initial video mode in xorg.conf ? The option
"PreferredMode"  in "monitor" section stops to work for  me after  such
diff:

You need to have the monitor attached to the according output, like
described in
http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd#head-0b4fdb3bbfdbdcdc68c8d712f75be6741e149685

e.g.
       Option      "monitor-VGA_1"  "External"

That it worked before this commit for you was just by accident. The
monitor referenced in the Screen section was selected for the first
available output, and you got *very* strange effects if it was
referenced by a option "monitor-XYZ" once more.

And another issue: screensaver Galaxy from xscreensaver-5.08 shows
incorrect picture while EXA are used (790GX video).

Alex, any ideas?

Not off hand. File a bug and I'll take a look.
