Bug#585911: display breaks on Lenovo W500 with KMS

["Brent S. Elmer Ph.D." <webe3vt@aim.com>]

I got the latest linux-source 2.6.32 from sid and rebuilt my kernel.  I
removed my /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf which had options radeon
modeset=0.  I can boot with the kernel and X seems to be fine.  When I
look in Xorg.0.log I see the following line:

[KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported.

So, I'm not sure if KMS is being used or not.  I am on the current
squeeze version of xserver-xorg-video-radeon(1:6.13.1-2)
