Hi,

It is confirmed that radeonfb needs to stay in the kernel for XFree86
to work on a number of machines (including both the 2x2 G5 and the 17"
Powerbook I use for testing).  So this rules out pmdisk in the
official kernel for the time being.  I will stay tuned, though.
Please let me know when this problem is solved.

Although it would be nice to have it packaged separately as
kernel-patch-pmdisk or somesuch.

Regards, Jens.
