I also had problems with xorg on a Radeon. Mine is a Radeon Mobility 7000 IGP.
What would happen is that upon loading GDM, the screen would go black, with some garbled output at the top of the screen. I did get a cursor and I could move it. If I tried to kill the X server by Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, or I tried to switch to a terminal, the screen would hang, although I could still reboot using Ctrl-Alt-Del. Is this the same behaviour as you are seeing? My problem was solved by installing new ati drivers from this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge Maybe this i worth a try for you too?
