Are you using the new or the old radeonfb driver? The new one is in the
aty src directory.

I run with the new radeonfb successfully from kernel 2.6.10 in
1280x720-50, but am still struggling with directfb.

The radeonfb driver needs a patch to set the correct acceleration id,
but I think it is being sent upstream.
