Ben, i have problems with your new radeonfb driver, apart that i have
to update the pci_ids.h and r200.c in both stock 2.6 and your bk tree
to make work my radeon 9200 (rv280 Ya), in your new driver, spaces
becomes '_', and after a while all characteres get messy.  My normal
setup is 1024x768-32@75 but with your driver the only reliable mode is
640x480-8@60.  Any idea?
