 Versions of packages xserver-xorg-video-radeon suggests:
 pn  firmware-linuxnone (no description available)

Does installing the above firmware-linux package help?

 When the X server is started both screens turn black (but stay on) and
 the keyboard is not working.

 It is possible to suspend and resume the system using the power button.
 After resume no trace of a X server can be found but no crash is logged
 in the X log either.
   

What did you change when this breakage appeared?

Does the problem occur before any 3D effect or whatever using 3D is
rendered? (Radeon 3D is broken in Mesa 7.5 in unstable, reverting to
experimental 7.5-rc4 works around the problem).

It may be that the server dies due to an unresolved symbol or something
else that can't be intercepted. Check its stderr output, e.g. in the
g/kdm log file.

Did this start after an upgrade of this package, xserver-xorg-core or
maybe some other related package (e.g. libgl1-mesa-dri)?

This happened after replacing the graphics card ( HD 4350 with X550).

Unfortunately, the stderr output scrolled by due to the output of my
startup script which I wrote to avoid crash with the standard startup
scripts.

With the stable radeon driver I can even get indirect EXA
acceleration. DRI is probably broken in the kernel.

The radeon driver did not work well with the HD 4350 either but at
least it lacked up only after showing my desktop background.

I do not use any 3D besides EXA.

Thanks

Michal
