I read you Phoronix comment while updating my own copy from 14.04.
Personal update went fine while using almost same card (HD 5750.) but
was already using radeon driver.

>From what I gather you were using catalyst before update. Any idea if
radeon driver worked with older version?

X with disabled KMS isn't supported. Your X logs essentially are from
trying this.

Something to try;
Add "modprobe.blacklist=radeon" to GRUB command line.
>From terminal;
sudo modprobe radeon ; sleep 1 ; dmesg > dmesg.log
If no errors startx.
