I think the problem is with the "ati" device driver. If I manually edit
Xorg.conf to use the "vesa" driver isntead, I get to a login screen and
after that a working desktop. But if I change it back to the driver
"ati" the aforementioned symptom appears again.
Also, I can see that my Xorg.conf file is almost empty when I edit it
for the first time from the console I get to by pressing Alt+F1. I've
attached it here. But all it really contains is this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
