Radeon Mobility 7500 in a laptop. Apparently, the monitor is connected through 
DVI. BTW, there was a fix for radeon screen blanking on DVI in the XFree86 
bugzilla at http://bugs.xfree86.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26. I 
think you could probably use it to fix console blanking for the radeon.

BTW, I am not on the list.

Thanks, Warren
