Yup. That works.

I just took the radeonfb patch from mm1 (on kernel.org), applied it to my 
tree, compiled it in the kernel, and rebooted. After the switch to graphics 
mode there's some garbage on top of the screen, but after that it works 
perfectly.

Good. If you want to do something if you unplug the AC-Adapter you only have to
wait for a battery event and then check "/proc/acpi/ac_adapter/ACAD/state".
It's not as simple as waiting for an ac-adapter event, but it works too.

Thanks a lot, with this patch my FB actually works again.
