This was obvious from the begining.
xelatex warned you about pdftex.map.

I advised you to regenerate updmap.cfg file because I thought you have only
one updmap.cfg located here
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg

Sorry, this was my fault I didn't see that you already post output from
$ kpsewhich updmap.cfg
~/.texlive2009/texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg
This is wrong[1]. Just remove this updmap.cfg file.

Futhermore, it was strange when you said that you install full-scheme
but you didn't have arabtex. I checked my install-tl.log and I have
arabtex installed. I also check texlive2009 repo (I rsync'ed from
ctex.ch) and arabtex package (.doc.tar.xz and .tar.xz files) are in.

If you don't mind I advise you to do following (I will hope this will work
:)
1. remove completely ~/.texlive2009/texmf-{var,conf}
   TL will create them when these directories will be needed.
2. run command
# tlmgr --repository http://texlive.guiling.fr install arabtex
   (I not checked this command)
   This command will install arabtex package.
3. run command
# tlmgr generate updmap
   This command will generate updmap.cfg _in_
   /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-config/web2c
4. and last run command
# updmap-sys
   This command creates necessary pdftex.map file (and another map
   files) in texlive tree: for example
   /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map
   or you could run
   $ updmap
   in which case the, e.g. pdftex.map file will be genereted and located
   in
   ~/.texlive2009/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map


Even you won't do these steps please send me your updmap.cfg from
~/.texlive2009/texmf-config/web2c/

[1] Actually this is not wrong but may lead to confusion.

Q:	How many DEC repairman does it take to fix a flat?
A:	Five; four to hold the car up and one to swap tires.

Q:	How long does it take?
A:	It's indeterminate.
	It will depend upon how many flats they've brought with them.

Q:	What happens if you've got TWO flats?
A:	They replace your generator.
