Um, you didn't enable CONFIG_FB or CONFIG_FB_RADEON, or
CONFIG_FB_RADEON_THINKPAD_PM in your config file.  So my patch
wouldn't have been activated, nor would your kernel even be compiling
any of the files changed by the patch....

Were you using stock 2.6.11 plus the patch, or were you trying to
apply the patch to gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.11-r4?  And in your next
message, you said that the gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.11-r4 kernel had "no
problems".  Was that with the same kernel .config file?
