I will install  firmware-amd-graphics as soon as I get a chance 
(probably this evening) and report back.  Meanwhile, Felix says that he 
never received my post with the full logs and others seem not to have 
received them, either, by what they have posted.  For the sake of 
keeping all of the information available for the future, I will post 
them at that time, as well.  Should they be sent as attachments, or 
inline.  I sent them as attachments last time. Could that have been the 
problem?
