Looks like you have one of those stupid video cards that expose 2 functions for
the 2 heads (total bogosity mandated by Windows it seems). Vesafb is taking
control fo the first one (I don't know why, it shouldn't if you use an explicit
kernel command line argument) and radeonfb is trying to get to the second but
that all messes up because they are the same bit of hardware. Well, I _think_
that's what's happening. What if you don't build vesafb in your kernel ?
