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.
If it's a laptop, it's probably LVDS. I indeed changed the code to retreive the EDID from BIOS for laptops based on recent XFree driver, though I haven't updated the 2.5 codebase with that change yet. Thanks for the URL for the blanking fix.
