OK, here are the memory mappings from dmesg:

Generic 64 bit kernel, "pci=bios"
http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/linux/acer/dmesg64-pcibios.txt

Generic 64 bit kernel, "pci=direct"
http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/linux/acer/dmesg64-pcidirect.txt

Generic 32 bit kernel, "pci=bios"
http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/linux/acer/dmesg-pcibios.txt

Generic 32 bit kernel, "pci=direct"
http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/linux/acer/dmesg-pcidirect.txt

Generic 64 bit kernel "make oldconfig" for 2.6.38.6 (going with default option
on all except those with module option, for which I chose module) without any
LILO append statement:
http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/linux/acer/dmesg64-test.txt

I hope the memory mappings prove useful.  Of the above, the Generic kernel
images were loaded with /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf specifying no i2c and with
i2c_piix4 blacklisted.  The last one ("test") I loaded without specifying that
option and without blacklisting the module.

This may be a dumb question but I'm seeing that modesetting is the "NEW DRIVER"
in the kernel config.  Slackware 13.37 should have sufficient userspace for it,
but the help in the kernel says "work is under way for...." and lists my card
(HD 4xxxx series).  Is work still under way?  Should I revert to
non-modesetting?  The only real recent info is the ArchLinux wiki page, which
recommends KMS disabled if one runs into problems, so I'll try that....
