What kernel version are you running?  You need to load fbcon to get a
framebuffer console with kms.  Radeonhd does not have support for kms.  You
need to use radeon (xf86-video-ati) to use X with kms.

It's 2.6.32-rc3. I've tried radeon and it doesn't work either (I get a blank
screen instead of the GDM login). Please see the Xorg and kernel logs that I've
attached.

The radeon driver you are using is too old or not compiled with KMS support see

I've compiled both the radeon driver and libdrm from the master branches. It
still won't work. With -rc3, I get strage dotted lines (thin & vertical)
instead of the GDM login window. The fb console works properly.

Again your ddx (xf86-video-radeon) is not compiled with kernel modesetting
enabled. Make sure you build libdrm with --enable-radeon-experimental-api and
that the ddx compilation use these libdrm and not one installed somewhere on
the system, then check that Xorg use the proper ddx. Yet the easier way to test
KMS is to use a distribution which handle that for you, so far only fedora does
(to the best of my knowledge).

It "works" now (I can log on into GDM), but it's still unusable: the image
freezes or the screen gets black after more ore less one minute. Yes, libdrm is
configured with the experimental API and --prefix=/usr, so it's the only one
the ddx can use. Same way, the ddx is configured with --prefix=/usr. I'm using
.32-rc4 and xserver-xorg-core 1.6.5.

Again your ddx is not built with KMS support. Rebuild drm with :
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64
make
make install

Then rebuild ddx with :
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr  (attach output of this command to the bug)
make
make install

I did exactly as instructed but it still has the same behaviour. I added

Ok so now ddx is kms enabled, can you confirm that booting in init 3 doesn't
give you a console ? Please also attach an Xorg log of radeon with kms
disabled.

On Debian, init 3 is identical to 2,4 and 5: graphical login. Booting
the normal way and stopping X ASAP gives me a stable console with the
right resolution.

I can confirm the same behavour on my Lenovo W500

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650

upon logging in with kdm, get a lockup. Using 2.6.32-rc4 + drm-next even,
