Hello,

I tried xf86-video-ati-6.9.0, but I still have the same problem.
I have verified that my computer does not freeze after starting X by ssh - but 
my screen becomes blank.
As soon as I kill X, my system freezes completely.

I think that it is a bug in xf86-video-ati since my configurations works fine 
with a Radeon x700. I do not have enough low level programming experience to 
solve this issue alone, but I will try everything you suggest.

Thanks in advance and kind regards

Ole
