Shortly after all this started, I built linux-
source_2.6.28.11.15_all.deb on PPC to see if that  later version (the
source for then current ia32 version) had the fault, and it did on PPC.
Yesterday, following spydouglas' example, I built kernel.org 2.6.28.10,
which, as we now know, works on PPC.

This morning, inspecting the differences in
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_cp.c, I naively changed the three
instances of drm_core_ioremap_wc() in the above Ubuntu source
(drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_cp.c) to remove the _wc, i.e. back to the
Korg non write combining version  (this is at lines 1183-1185), [ ==>
drm_core_ioremap()].

The kernel from modified Ubuntu source works with DRM, though I have no
idea what the side affects might be.
