It works finally. I don't know if with vesafb or with radeon, but it works.

In my old .config file I have:
cat /usr/src/linux-2.6.1/linux18-pre6 | grep ^CONFIG | egrep -i "fb|radeon|
console"
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m
CONFIG_FB_SIS=m
CONFIG_FB_SIS_300=y
CONFIG_FB_SIS_315=y
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=m
CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y

now, I have the following:
 cat /usr/src/linux-2.6.1/linux18-pre7 | grep ^CONFIG | egrep -i "fb|radeon|
console"
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m
CONFIG_FB_SIS=y
CONFIG_FB_SIS_300=y
CONFIG_FB_SIS_315=y
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y

I suspect that it's because Frame buffer console is y and not m. But perhaps 
it's Sis too.

Regards to all,
Xan.
