Radeon and Xorg 7.5 still unusable.

With or without a /etc/X11/xorg.conf xorg looks like someone has turned 
the brightness and contrast to almost zero.
Also while using the radeon driver, after a minute of three the server 
locks up with
[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

I've even tried the GIT driver,
(II) Module radeon: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
         compiled for 1.7.5, module version = 6.13.99
         Module class: X.Org Video Driver
         ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 6.0
with the same effect.

Using the vesa driver, switching to console, or using mplayer or vlc 
makes the display turn in a psycadylic looking blob.

The previous version or Xorg worked wonderfully, ran at 1600x1200 with 
no problems what so ever.
