I can confirm the same bug with a fully updated (as of yesterday) Arch
installation running KDE. The vesa driver works as expected, but the radeon
driver gives a black screen with artifacts. I have a Sapphire X1900 as well.
Adding the following to the "Device" section in xorg.conf gives a semi-usable
desktop with windows that don't redraw properly:

Option "DRI" "off"
Option "AccelMethod" "XAA"
