Hm. This is really weird. Maybe Luc has an idea...

If it helps any, this looks very similar to the problem I was
experiencing when I first tried to get radeonhd working with my
M690T-based notebook. I tried twiddling with the avivo, r300 (ati), and
the vesa drivers to see if I could get it to work under any of those. I
tried adding the PCI IDs to the r300 driver (of course, didn't work, but
I didn't know where this card stood at the time). Anyhow, after trying
to run X.org with those various drivers, attempting manual Monitor
ModeLine in the xorg.conf, etc.... I started up X.org with the radeonhd
driver once and it *just worked*, and has worked ever since. I am
curious if there was some mode setup in the AVIVO driver, or in the VESA
driver that kicked the card/panel init for me (but the driver later
failed due to some other reason).

I've tried figuring out what I was doing, but I a) don't want to render
my display unusable again, and b) didn't take good notes the first time
around.
