What video driver are you trying to use ? Have you tried plain offb ?
(disabling whatever is the native driver for your video card, ie,
radeonfb or aty128fb or even atyfb, dunno what you have in there).

You can also try something like "udbg-immortal" on the kernel command
line see if that brings you more debug output.
i asked for more tests and it seems  "udbg-immortal" maybe helped.
Here a new screenshot:

and the bootkernel (config was attached in the previus mail) was
compiled with CONFIG_SMP=y 
Does the problem happens if you compile it without CONFIG_SMP ?

Cheers,
Ben.
