This is incompatible with the radeonhd X driver. You should > use the radeon driver instead. I did not know that. To me, it seemed like radeonhd driver was the future and radeon some kind of legacy driver. Apparently, it is not. I switched to the radeon driver and now it works (only with the latest kernel). I think it should be documented somewhere. And considering the results of running firmware-linux-nonfree with xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd (blank screen), maybe it would be nice to add a conflict against xserver-xorg-video- radeonhd and a suggest in favor of xserver-xorg-video-radeon.
