It is better to post your problem and see if someone can help. With a newer driver like Radeon, you may be better off to download and compile the CVS version.
I think all of the XFree86 drivers have some degree of crap in them compared to things like the FreeBSD or Linux kernels. A lot has changed recently in graphics hardware, and new features like DRI and Xvideo extension have been added. The drivers are very complex, require a lot of work, and there's very little funding. Things are stabilizing, but you should be patient. If you want a more stable server, you can always pay money and buy one from MetroX or Xig, which are quite reasonable.
