Can you try that?  It would help narrow down what the problem is.  Additionally
does using the same ddx (xf86-video-ati) and xserver version from the previous
version of ubuntu work?  Can you try that similar to how you tested the older
kernel with a newer ubunutu?  Also does starting X as root work?  It could be
that the configuration with the efi stub loader sets device permissions
differently or something like that.
