xserver-xorg-core conflicts with xserver-xorg-video-4
xserver-xorg-video-radeon provides xserver-xorg-video-4 and is to be installed.

[ 0.002714] (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[ 0.186018] (EE) module ABI major version (4) doesn't match the server's version (5)
[ 0.186058] (EE) Failed to load module "ati" (module requirement mismatch, 0)
[ 0.186072] (EE) No drivers available.
