Hi Kevin,

Ben's kernel tree has a relatively recent version of radeonfb, I will
send out an updated newer version in a couple days. As for X, you can
build 4.1.0 and apply the patch I have in my dir on ftp.linuxppc.org
(users/ajoshi/radeon) or you can build X cvs which has my fixes applied.
DRI support is still in progress.

Flat panel support in radeonfb will be nice, I will try and send you some
code over for that as I do not have a flat panel display.
