I have done a rsync less than one week ago.
radeonfb is enabled by default.

I have the one from the url advertised by the mol web site (0.9.65 too).
I suspect they are the same.

As I do. I have try with your modline and the one fbset give me on my
computer :

mode "1280x854-60"
    # D: 79.815 MHz, H: 51.963 kHz, V: 60.003 Hz
    geometry 1280 854 1280 854 8
    timings 12529 128 16 8 1 112 3
    accel true
    rgba 6/0,6/0,6/0,0/0
endmode

It doesn't work. The console becomes black when the line "+ MOLVideo_Open" appears.

I put below the output :
