Subject: 2.6.7 shows blank screen during boot with Radeon 9600 Mobility

Hello NG,

I've updated to 2.6.7 today and noticed that the screen goes blank very
soon during booting (I think after the ACPI statements, maybe the
initialization of radeonfb?). 2.6.6 did not show this behaviour. Later,
when the console font is being initialized, the screen comes back.
Therefore I guess the font is there but the character set is just
"blank". This is quite annoying as I cannot see, for example, if there's
any fschk going on.

I'm using an Acer Travelmate 291 LMi (subtype of the 290) which has an
ATI Radeon 9600 Mobility graphics adapter built-in.

Subject: Re: 2.6.7 shows blank screen during boot with Radeon 9600 Mobility

Hi,

I found another laptop showing the _exact_ symptoms, as soon as

Device Drivers --->
Graphics support --->
[*] Support for frame buffer devices
<*> ATI Radeon display support

is being enabled. This _definitely_ is a kernel bug, as it works with
2.6.6 just fine. Here's the other laptop's lspci:
