Subject: startx broken on today's git tree

Hi,

I used today's git tree with FC11 configs plus some debug configs,
then I found my FC11 can not startx anymore... Each time I run
startx, I'll get a Fatal error:

(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Then from dmesg, I saw flood messages:

[drm:radeon_cp_getparam_kms] *ERROR* invalid ioctl with kms
radeon_cp_getparam_kms

Attach is my dmesg log, any ideas on this issue? Thank you.

Disable radeon KMS, or upgrade your xorg radeon driver.

I don't think F11 includes a new enough radeon driver for KMS to work.
