OK, now home, tried workarounds, and can confirm that this does indeed seem to be a duplicate of bug #444139. I did the following: First I enabled KMS as per comment #3 in bug #444139, which helped things noticeably, I was able to go to "Normal" visual effects without a crash, and still had my bac

Well, in fact, it would be interesting to see the xorg.log with the extra effects activated. In fact, it should work like in Jaunty. Anyway looking by the look of the screenshot you joined in launchpad, it's like there is a problem with the transpary somewhere, meaning that an option is missing

Good idea about Nautilus, but in fact it was running - I've attached a screenshot just to show it. Your tip about the Appearance/Visual Effects preferences helped discover a new problem :o) So, here are the steps I went through: Original state: xorg-radeon driver with Alexandre's latest xorg.conf

Oh la la, finally! LOL! Anyway, about the no background & no icon stuff, it's surely nautilus which didn't start, so when it happens, you just make "Alt + F2" and you type nautilus in the "launch an application". I guess the repetitive crashs of the xorg server, changed some stuff in the session

OK, as before, I removed fglrx entirely, modified xorg.conf and rebooted. Finally, some success! I can now use Firefox in the native resolution. (Otherwise still no background, no desktop icons, only the toolbars, and windows open/close/move very slowly.) I've attached the Xorg.0.log for this boot

Well the last Xorg log you gave me only deals about fglrx, so it won't help. Anyway, I think you should try this now, and tell me if that works. Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "radeon" Option "UseEDID" "false" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifi

Okay, I tried that xorg.conf, but unfortunately, it didn't change anything for the display with the xorg radeon driver (Ubuntu did boot correctly with it, however). I went ahead and re-tried with the previous xorg.conf you wrote for me, knowing it would crash. I tried startx in the recovery kernel

Well, you could try a simpler xorg.conf to see what happens. I'm surprised the last one I posted didn't work, because it's the xorg.conf I had used for years on Gentoo Linux with a Radeon 9500 (without the input devices sections which were removed because now input devices are handled by HAL instea

I tried that (deactivated and uninstalled fglrx, used that xorg.conf - merci beaucoup pour ça) and... again it hung on startup, just before the splash screen.

Well, a precision, as i didn't read well the resume of your problem. With the fglrx driver, I can get a 1920x1080 resolution, but it doesn't fit well the whole screen.
