Sorry about reporting the version in Testing. By crash I mean, KDM loads as soon as KDE finishes loading it crashes and goes right back to the KDM login screen. Also tried using Slim and Openbox, Slim.log was the only log with any errors. .Xauthority file was present and had the correct permissions. The only thing that fixed the crashes was downgrading to the version of xserver-xorg-video-radeon in Testing. I tried moving .kde, removing Xorg.conf, deleting and recreating .Xauthority, nothing worked other than downgrading.
