Solved the problem following these instructions:

This must be done on both the boot command line and in the module
configuration.

/etc/default/grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"

/etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf
options radeon modeset=0

In other words, as root, edit the file /etc/default/grub by changing the line 
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"  (or add the line if necessary)

THEN open a text editor as root, type the words
options radeon modeset=0
and save it as "radeon-kms.conf" (without the quotation marks) in the folder 
/etc/modprobe.d/
