Excuse me, but are you sure about everything? This is taken from the
changelog on kernel.org
<benh at kernel.crashing.org>
[PATCH] radeonfb update
It adds the sleep support for newer powermacs, improve power saving on
some
laptops, makes use of the new fbdev modelist management routines, and
fixes
a few backlight related issues.
I tested it on a thinkpad T30 and a few PPC boxes with success. It
should
be less invasive than the previous one (I don't try to restore the
mode on
exit, that is what breaks the thinkpad and possibly other stuffs that
boot
in VGA text mode), plus fixed a couple of bugs in the mode detection
code.
I also reverted the memory map fix on ppc since it doesn't work
properly on
some recent laptops where the firmware sets a tiled display. I'll
rework
that completely to update the memory map as part of the mode setting
later.
That should fix various issues when switching with X/DRI on x86.

I'll be compiling it later tonight :)
Oh, and did you remove kernel support for Lexar Jumpdrives? 'Cause now
mine does not work with ydl-2.6.10 ;)
