As powerpc kernels have radeonfb enabled by default, something else that
might help would be to fix the radeon kernel module to fall back to UMS
when something else has claimed the device, rather than staying inactive
with KMS 'enabled'.

But I'm not sure that alone would do, so this is probably still a good
idea I'm afraid. Thanks for working on it!
