Title:
  hardware accleration freezes PowerMac G4 with KMS enabled

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Whenever I try to enable KMS using these parameters "radeon.modeset=1
  video=offb:off video=radeonfb:off radeon.agpmode=-1" My machine
  freezes. I have not had this issue with iBook or my PowerBook. However
  if I turn off hardware acceleration in Xorg: Option "NoAccel" "False".
  Then KMS is enabled but I am in Software Rasterizer. You hardware
  accleration to have XVid working or you are forced to X11 for video
  playback. There any way to get hardware acceleration working on this
  video card?
