CONFIG_FB=y
[...]
# CONFIG_FB_VGA16 is not set
# CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
[...]
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y
[...]

CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
# CONFIG_MDA_CONSOLE is not set
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FONTS=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

ACPI is enabled.

Then, my boot param for linux is (from grub):

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.2-rc3 ro root=/dev/sdb6 video=radeonfb:1024x768 at 70

HTH,
Juan
