You can force it to use EXA until glamor support is fixed. This is how I did
it:
t@h ~> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Radeon 7750"
Driver "radeon"
Option "SWcursor" "off" #software cursor might be
necessary on some rare occasions, hence set off by default
Option "EnablePageFlip" "on" #supported on all R/RV/RS4xx
and older hardware, and set on by default
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" #valid options are XAA, EXA
and Glamor. EXA is the default
Option "RenderAccel" "on" #enabled by default on all
radeon hardware
Option "ColorTiling" "on" #enabled by default on RV300
and later radeon cards
Option "EXAVSync" "off" #default is off, otherwise
on. Only works if EXA activated
Option "EXAPixmaps" "on" #when on icreases 2D
performance, but may also cause artifacts on some old cards. Only works if EXA
activated
Option "AccelDFS" "on" #default is off, read the
radeon manpage for more information
