Package: linux-2.6
Severity: normal


With the built-in radeonfb and KMS enabled by default, DRM is broken on eMacs.
See e.g. FDO#27502 [1].
Disabling KMS in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf works around the issue.

Not sure what a real fix would be in this case - is there a framebuffer driver that can coexist with drm?
