FIXED --- I think...(?)
I recieved a reply to my bug report from Julien Cristau (jcristau at debian.org)
suggesting using 7.3 version radeon driver. Wish I had one. I've check the
Debian site and both unstable and experimental releases only offer 6.12
releases. Not gonna mess with them.
I did try connecting an external mouse, and was actually able to hover over the
reduce console area, and use "exit" to stop the server.
However, when I restarted I got the same problem of vertical bars, BUT I was
able to hover the mouse over the area where the reduce console was supposed to
have appeared, and type "exit" to stop the server.
This lead me to believe that the server believed the screen was there, even
though it didn't appear so. I recalled seeing in the log file a bunch of
modeline entries. I guessed that the information there might have been useful.
After looking at the Xorg.conf man page I sort of figured out what is supposed
to go where. I'm still not sure how the different "Modes" work in the
"SubSection Display" entries work, but they don't seem to be harming anything.
Anyways, attached is the xorg.conf file I came up with. At the very least, this
bug is logged in case anyone else has a similar problem. In the meantime, I
plead ignorance of youth :)
