Try building radeonfb in the kernel and booting with
radeonfb.default_dynclk=-1, let me know if that works. fbdev's in
modules have always been sort-of dodgy....

Ok, did that. Same result. The only thing displayed is the system
caret. I can see it moving left and right while the system boots and
"displays" the messages (X is working nicely).

Well... looks like radeonfb is actually working ... You can try booting
with radeonfb.noaccel=1 on your kernel command line and tell me what's
up ? I looks like your fbcon is having trouble actually. Not sure what's
up, I haven't had any report of that so far.

Same result as without (screen "burns").

Well, I sent a patch that might fix the "burning" effect, if you could
get the latest bk, and try again...

Thanks,
Ben.
