Thank you for the advice. The problem I had before with the DRM modules (drm.ko and radeon.ko) from the r300 CVS was that drm.ko would load fine but loading radeon.ko was causing my computer to lock up after a kernel panic. I had tried it rebuilding both it and the kernel several times without success. However, last night I went back to a 2.6.10 kernel and was able to get things working; I unpacked the vanilla kernel sources, compiled the kerne and rebooted, then compiled and successfully loaded the right DRM modules. :D
Hmm, I have the same issue : https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2418
But when I use drm-core from linux-2.6.11-rc5, it works fine.
I tried to trace it and saw that for some reason the drm_init function has the same address as radeon_init which results in smashing the stack with recursive calls when radeon_init calls drm_init.
