I've been playing around testing Radeon KMS, and the results differ depending on whose tree I try. :\ Dave Airlie's drm-rawhide tree yields a nice fbcon, but X won't start. Jerome Glisse's drm-next-radeon tree, which is what will eventually be moved upstream fails to start.
I've just downloaded Glisse's tree and checked out the drm-next-radeon branch. I don't get as far as you as I get compilation errors:

(this is with a Compaq XP1000 running Debian testing.)I guess I could disable compilation of ide and atapi in the kernel config, but the cdrom is the device I boot from! Then again, would I be correct in thinking that the boot device is actually only read by the SRM for the kernel, and once the kernel starts booting the boot device is not needed anymore (the root partition is on a SATA disc which the SRM can't boot from) thus I could indeed remove ide/atapi support for testing purposes?
Cheers Michael.
