Squeeze with ATI video won't hibernate

Hi,
I have two debian machines running squeeze and configured (almost) identically.  The laptop (Lenovo T430s) hibernates correctly, the desktop does not.  My desktop has:

# cat /proc/meminfo 
MemTotal:       12077024 kB
...
SwapTotal:      17583104 kB

The desktop has Radeon video card.  

# lspci -v | grep VGA
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 [Radeon HD 4250] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

I have installed the non-free firmware package.  The X.log indicates that the radeon driver is being loaded.  I created xorg.conf as shown below.

When I try to hibernate the screen goes black and the machine does not power down.  I show to X.log file behavior below after attempting to hibernate.

Similarly, if I try to change virtual terminals (Ctl-Alt-#), the screen goes black and I get the same error messages that occur when I try to hibernate.

I believe that when I was running Lenny, hibernate and virtual terminals both worked.  (It has been a while since I upgraded so I can't be 100% certain.)

I'm happy to post any info that would help, but I'm at a loss.  

I tried installing the ATI proprietary drivers (http://wiki.debian.org/ATIProprietary).  With those installed neither hibernate nor  switching virtual terminals C-A-F# has any effect.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.  

Thanks.
