Bug#514286: RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200]

I am not sure whether it is the same problem, or whether I should file a 
bug report on my own.

My system is an Acer Power P5, onboard graphics card RC410 [Radeon 
Xpress 200], the Testing distribution (Squeeze) installed.

When booting and switching from Text to graphics mode, the machine 
hangs. The same is when, instead of booting, returning from hibernation.

Under kernel 2.6.30-1 and 2.6.30-2 it happens *always*.

When instead this, using kernel 2.6.26-2, it only occurs often, so the 
system is usable after one or two reboots.

When downgrading packages xserver-xorg-video-ati and 
xserver-xorg-video-radeon from Squeeze (that is 1:6.12.3-1) to Lenny,
mouse and keyboard do not work except Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2 and so on; I can 
switch to the console and do everything there.

That means *the machine does not hang* and the bug must be in one of 
these two packages.
