Thanks for pointing me at /var/log/Xorg.0.log. There wasn't an (EE) line, 
so I broadened the search (non-relevant lines removed):

walterh@saturn:~$ egrep 'EE|WW' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for vesa
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for fbdev
(WW) RADEON(0): Color tiling is not yet supported on R600/R700
(WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled

Sorry it's long, but the whole of (what I believe is the relevant section 
of) /var/log/Xorg.0.log reads:

I suspected that the problem was the kernel modesetting, but when I tried 
with the nomodeset parameter it didn't seem to make a difference.

Does this get nearer to identifying the issue?

Thanks again.
