Greg,
Sorry for the confusion. After a little more digging I found out what's
happening. I appears that with this new kernel /etc/hotplug/pci.agent
now decides to load radeonfb. This module, when loaded, causes the
virtural console screen to go blank. I've added radeonfb to
/etc/hotplug/blacklist and now all is well.
I'm an X user and don't use frame buffer so I guess this is no big
deal. Thanks again for the help.
-Todd
