I think this is the crucial piece of advice. It looks like the radeon
kernel module is getting loaded too late for the X driver to notice that
KMS is enabled.
thanks for your quick answer. I thought so too, but loading the module
via /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf should be early enough - but even if
I load it via grub, which I tried, this message remains.
# cat /etc/default/grub
...
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="radeon.modeset=1"
I did update-grub2 afterwards.
Cheers
P.S.:
You can answer to the list, I read it ;-)
