Hi!
That is pity, but it doesn't work :-(.
I have got a "chatoyant" screen with a disappearing kernel output.
The system doesn't react to any commands and I can only poweroff the
laptop.
I'm going to try to get some logs from aux/vga.

Hello,
You can download the following required files :
http://xigh.free.fr/radeon.c -> /sys/src/cmd/aux/vga
http://xigh.free.fr/radeon.h -> /sys/src/cmd/aux/vga
http://xigh.free.fr/vgaradeon.c -> /sys/src/9/pc
http://xigh.free.fr/vgadb -> merge with /lib/vgadb
Please note I couldn't test if this version fully works. Indeed the only
Radeon chipset I have (for the moment) is in my laptop (XPress 200M)
and I know for sure it doesn't work (I planned to work on the driver
but for lack of time, I couldn't). So ... pay carreful attention with
these
files (and your computer).

Ps: I would suggest you to buy Intel/Nvidia's chipsets whenever you
can. Indeed newer Ati's chipsets are not documented at all (I don't
have docs and reading x11 drivers is ... a real drag ...) and only
commercial drivers work (even for 2D only stuff) ... not to mention
the fact Nvidia's chipsets seem to be much better designed than
Ati one's. I mean that regarding api ... in order to add support for
a newer Nvidia's chipset ... it seems you only have to edit
/lib/vgadb.
This not true with Ati.
