Radeon KMS doesn't work.

I have a Dell Inspiron 5100 with an ATI Radeon Mobility M7 (7500 R100
PCI ID 1002:4c57 sub 1028:0149).

Immediately when radeon.ko is loaded, the screen goes blank (The backlight
stays on). I have fbcon compiled into the kernel (I also tried as module).
I am unable to get the screen to work again until I reboot. The logs did
not appear to have any errors after the module loaded. The system was still
responsive on the network.

I tried kernels 2.6.33 and 2.6.34.

I can provide kernel output if needed.
