as in “X :0”? That's normal, you get a black background and no X client by default. You could try: X :0 & sleep 5; DISPLAY=:0 xterm Your log indeed looks fine. There's the fbdev driver you could try by the way. Or disabling KMS to see if that helps with your radeon issue. Is the bug you're having with radeon reported in the BTS? KiBi.
