Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

When using the "radeon" driver I get a blank screen with no cursor and
unresponsive keyboard, if and only if fglrx is also installed.  I
believe this may be caused because the "fglrxdrm" sub module is still
loaded, if present, even when using the radeon driver.  Removing the
fglrx packages fixes this problem.

I suggest that either xserver-xorg-video-ati should conflict with fglrx,
or the sub module should somehow be prevented from loading.
