Ok, I've reduced my xorg.conf to the following:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "radeonhd"
EndSection

Otherwise, the autodetect gives me the radeon driver, which doesn't work 
well. I've commented out everything else. I still have the problem with 
'pink screen' following resume from hibernate, corrected by restarting X 
or rebooting, neither of which are convenient.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Tyler
