Okay this was something I wondered about, since these are *not* allyesconfig
.configs, I've generated some and CONFIG_FB_RADEON is always on here, and
you seem to not have that enabled (not that enabling it is a good idea
it is in fact
a really bad idea).

So do you have something you are running after allyesconfig to fix things? or
have you just got a config that is close enough to allyesconfig.

I'm building kernels with your .config now and boot testing them on
the full range of
hardware I have/
