So I'll "cvs up" regularly and wait until I see modifications about
radeonfb and snapper ;-)

I've seen such a thing once or twice before... Unfortunately, I can't
remember if it was on a Dell Optiplex (/i386) with Intel card, or on a
Ultra 10 with an ATI Rage XL...

Well, as far as I tested it, looked like it only froze the reboot process
when xdm was started. But as the console don't work nice (yet), it could
be related.

I'll retest those two bugs when the pull-up will be there.
