Don't try 2.4.23. X only works with 2.6.x on your machine.

I've been seen your configs in:

http://industrie.dyndns.org/soft/debian/AlBook/

(BTW. http://industrie.dyndns.org/soft/debian/TiBook is broken)

Are all these files your current configs? In such case you should
make the following changes:

.config

CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE ## I don't know if it's strictly necessary
			   ## but I think is better than dummy console.)

CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT	   ## You do need it if you use "ATI Radeon 
			   ## display support" (New driver).

XF86Config-4:

<snip>
Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Card0"
	Driver		"radeon"
#	BusID		"PCI:0:16:0"  ### it's not needed.
	Option		"UseFBDev"    ### the most important !!
EndSection

#Section "Modes" ### AFAIK, unnecessary.
#...
#EndSection
<snip>

Don't forget to remove "video=ofonly" (or similar) 
from your 'yaboot.conf'.

Greetings
