Like it was said, she was using fglrx before because the hang problems. Now that ATI dropped support for 8500-9250 series of cards, it's again being tried to use open source drivers, but the old hanging/blackscreen problem persists.
So, despite the fglrx mentions, this report is about the open source driver and wishes for instructions how to get it not to hang.
Anyway, indeed in addition to my hint, it might be worthwhile to "clean" the driver section to just include the Identifier, Driver and BusID, which are the only ones that should be really needed. Just in case some of the options cause any trouble.
Also, Driver can be just "ati" instead of "radeon", though it should not matter.
