I suspect that drm is broken as the screen is definitely 'messed up'
until you get to a certain point in the boot process. This is also the
point where the screen goes blank if drm is enabled. The point is that
I did not even build ATI's DRM support and the screen went blank. The
strange point is if I built Radeon DRM support, the blank screen problem
did not happen.
