I confirm Apple PowerBook G4 17" would work with the radeonfb compiled
into kernel. I just re-compiled 3.2.0-23-powerpc-smp and set the
following options:

3886c3886
< # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set
---
> CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS=y
3948c3948
< CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m
---
> CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y
3952c3952
< CONFIG_FB_ATY128=m
---
> CONFIG_FB_ATY128=y
3954c3954
< CONFIG_FB_ATY=m
---
> CONFIG_FB_ATY=y

And that made the suspend work and I can switch to tty's which were
garbled earlier. Please apply the changes into kernel config, otherwise
the PowerBook is serioysly broken on ubuntu.

I also need to apply the following as kernel params:

radeon.modeset=0 video=radeonfb:1440x900-24@60
