To install "firmware-amd-graphics" package is a good suggestion.
But chances are high that removal of *-ati and *-radeon packages will
also remove Desktop Environment, because those packages are part of
"xserver-xorg-video-all" package.
I'd suggest a less radical approach and simply "tell" the system what
driver to use via modprobe config files. [1]
