Nope, the syntax should be OK. Question is does the ati driver parse that
option if fb_open_pci is used.

I just rsynced Ani's tree, and the ati driver doesn't. Ani, why not?

Only the fbdev and glint drivers use this option, all the others get the
fbdev device from the BusID option, unfortunately fbdev_open_pci() will open
the *first* device that matches the device so if you have more than 2
devices it will map the first one again with bad results.
Geert posted recently a patch recently for fbdev_open_pci so it will do the
right thing (i never tested it though) give it a try.
