A DRMKMS kernel from 15th works as suggested above - switches to 1280x1024 and is fine after (Xorg panics earlier; with the latest build from yesterday it even wedged the machine completely). On the other hand yesterday's kernel panics as follows: [...] drm kern error: radeon_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/R300_cp.bin" Do you still have /usr/libdata/firmware/radeon/R300_cp.bin on the root file system? We really ought to have a better story if it's not, but that's my first guess about the problem. panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "ttm->caching_state == tt_cached" failed: file "../../../../external/bsd/drm2/dist/drm/ttm/ttm_tt.c", line 423 This is a bug in the rat's nest of error branches in the Radeon code, ugh...
