This happens when HW acceleration is disabled. If you can't or don't
want to enable HW acceleration, I recommend using the Xorg modesetting
driver for the time being, by either uninstalling
xserver-xorg-video-radeon or explicitly setting the driver in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, see below. Without HW acceleration, the radeon
driver doesn't really provide much if any benefit over modesetting.
