Workaround for R5xx users (Radeon X1xx series)
-----------------------------------------------

- disable KMS by adding 'nomodeset' to kernel boot options
(/boot/grub/menu.lst).

- add the following section to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf

Section "Module"
Disable "dri"
Disable "dri2"
EndSection

- use this "Device" in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf./50-device.conf

Section "Device"
Identifier "Default Device"

Driver "radeonhd"
Option "AccelMethod" "xaa"
EndSection


Workaround for R3xx/R4xx users (Radeon 9600/X300/Xxxx)
------------------------------------------------------

- disabled KMS by adding 'nomodeset' to boot options.

- add the following section to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf

Section "Module"
Disable "dri"
Disable "dri2"
EndSection


Hardware: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV530LE
[Radeon X1600/X1650 PRO]
Worked for me with Driver "radeon". If Driver "radeonhd" selected then card
detect as RV535 Radeon X1300, X1650 which has a different output
configuration.
