The in-tree X does not detect RADEON 9200.  So, I tried to set up the
recent snapshot (version 4.3.99.902) of XFree86 a couple of days ago.

The "radeon" driver in the snapshot can be used and works fine, although
there is one problem that the console is black out after X.

The problem is fixed in our xsrc tree.  I am using the driver which is
patched locally.
