On my Dell Latitude C640 as on Peter Osterlund's laptop - blind-typing

Old driver with Peter's patch works as before.

Note - this is the same laptop you tried I gave up using framebuffer on
in the 2.4 series because after 2.4.22-pre4 it would send my screen in
a crazed-up state (X didn't work either) [that was July 2003].


Please enable the #define DEBUG 1 in radeonfb.h and send me the
output again.

in case you need more context.
