Yes, it is (sorry for my lack of updates), but with KMS is different. I'm
currently using Debian Squeeze:
xserver-xorg-video-radeon 1:6.13.1-2
xserver-xorg              1:7.5+7
xserver-xorg-core         2:1.7.7-8
libdrm2                   2.4.21-1~squeeze3
linux-image-2.6.32-5-686  2.6.32-26 (it contains drm from 2.6.34)

When KMS is turned on (default behaviour), the flickering stars when (I think)
the kernel module is loaded (I don't know if radeon or drm) and when Xorg
starts, the flickering is fixed (just like Xorg change some values) and virtual
consoles work again.
How can I help to debug this issue?
