I was about to note that problems with digitally connected displays 
(especially Apples's?) and Radeons were noticed on various platforms.

(even more OT)

Could you explain how it failed?

I'm asking because I've unsuccessfully tried to get a 17in Apple LCD 
working with a (Mac) Radeon 7500, using both XFree and pkgsrc Xorg 6.8.2.

The display invariably goes black (and stays black after stopping the 
server), although the X server seems completely happy.
I've tried to apply later X patches in the radeon driver, but it didn't 
help.
