P.S. There is also strange side effect after reloading radeon driver
from X console: the screen switch off. So I have to switch between
virtual console and X. Is it an bug?
I think there's a bug where unloading the radeon kernel module without
KMS will interfere with the hardware state for the X driver. However,
you can only unload the radeon kernel module if the X driver uses
neither KMS nor DRI in general, which is undesirable in the first place.
So fixing this is low priority even as far as UMS bugs are concerned.
