I haven't tried this yet, but I got it partly working with this patch.

	http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.1-rc1/2.6.1-rc1-mm1/broken-out/radeon-line-length-fix.patch

Partly means, after patching a vanilla 2.6.1 with the above patch, the framebuffer works after insmodding the radeonfb module but:

	* Color depth 16 gives me a green or blue background
	* Color depth 24 gives "ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument"
	* Switching from X to console blanks it. fbset -depth <other depth> brings it back
          again
