Hi Andrew, Did you ever get this ancient (2006!) issue resolved? I didn't see any responses on the list, and Lara is having a sort of similar issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15436 I think your problem was that Linux saw the Radeon card but didn't assign resources correctly, while in Lara's case, Linux doesn't see the card at all. I suspect that your problem has been resolved in the meantime and that Lara's might be broken hardware, but if yours is still broken, I'd like to take a look at it.

Wow, that is ancient! I'm afraid I can't help you, as I no longer have the hardware in question, but I found some sort of workaround. It either involved kernel boot parameters or a newer version of the kernel, and I don't recall the details, but I did eventually get the card to work.
