Hi,

I want to report a bug in the Linux kernel 2.6.38.  Loading the radeon 
module causes the console to go completely blank (laptop backlight on, 
but nothing displayed).  The system still responds to ctrl-alt-del and 
reboots.  This is a regression from the previous kernel, 2.6.37.4, where 
kernel mode setting works flawlessly.

With radeon.modeset=0, or with the module blacklisted, the system boots 
fine, and I can use X, but without the powersaving features available 
through KMS.

System: Toshiba Satellite A305-S6916
Graphics: ATI Radeon Mobility HD 3650
Kernel: 2.6.38 (x86_64)

Kernel log when loading the module:
