I think i have a workaround. This is how i did it:

Since there was no xorg.conf in /etc/X11/, i guess Xorg makes the condig
up at runtime, i had to ,,make'' one first. For this i needed Xorg to
shut down. So i opened a console by pressing ctrl+alt+f1, logged in and
started a root shell with "sudo sh". Then i turned off Xorg, created a
new xorg.conf, copied it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, changed it and finally
restarted Xorg:

#> service kdm stop
#> Xorg -configure
#> cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
#> vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf (change device "radeon" to device "vesa")
#> service kdm start

The display is slow and most eyecandy is turned off, but at least it
works. The problem is somewhere in the Xorg radeon module i think.
