Hi there,
Following my previous more of less successful experience with newcons on
-CURRENT/amd64 and some ATI/AMD card, I've decided to give it a try here
on i386 with somewhat older HD 4350, also from ATI. Unfortunately, this
time newcons'ified GENERIC kernel + startx = reboot (core.txt attached).
Same happens (reboot) if kldload radeonkms is done on the console;
kldload'ing radeon.ko allows the box to survive startx(1), but it fails
with (EE) RADEON(0): Kernel modesetting setup failed in Xorg.0.log.
Switching back to syscons(4) allows me to start X.org (with KMS-related
modules successfully loaded and DRI enabled). This' all sans xorg.conf.
$ kldstat | grep radeonkms
