I have the same issue (Asus EAX1650XT video card, Ubuntu 9.04). I tried installing the latest version of the driver (following the instructions at http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon). The result is still the same.

When I start X, I get a blank screen, sometimes with some garbage near the top. Sometimes, I also have garbage where the mouse pointer is supposed to be. gdm plays its welcome sound, so the system is not completely locked up, but they keyboard doesn't seem to do anything anymore.
