Thanks for the heads-up! Could you tell us what kernel version you used
and what the version of the X.org driver was (Debian package versions)?

Out of curiosity, what X.org driver are you using? Assuming you are
using Debian testing with a 3.16 kernel and 7.5.0 radeon driver, you
won't be able to use the radeon driver anymore but just the generic,
low-performance fbdev driver.

I will hopefully be able to test some Powerbooks myself this week.
