Maybe because the title didn't describe the problem well; trying to fix
that. I'd also like to merge these bugs, but the severities don't match,
and I'm not sure which one is appropriate. What do the other XSF folks
think?

Good, but I'd recommend switching to a 2.6 kernel instead. :)
BTW, what version of the radeon DRM does the 2.4 kernel have?
dmesg|grep drm
should tell (after loading the radeon kernel module).
