(You've since followed up to the forums saying that the revert didn't fix
your issue.)

It doesn't make sense to suspect Geode of causing these problems, anyway.
If a system only has a Radeon card, the Geode code won't be loaded.  The
problem's extremely likely to be in the Radeon driver, X server, or kernel.
