Public bug reported:

Using the stack from the PPA mentioned in Bryce Harringtons blogpost
(http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/drupal/node/84), and the kernel
parameter radeon.modeset=1, I get the following problems:

* i get a message that the kernel parameter is unrecognised at the beginning of the boot process
* usplash starts showing, and when the progress bar is at about 20% ( i assume that's when the X server starts), the screen turns black. you can see by the HDD activity, that the boot process probably continues just fine, except nothing is shown on screen.

This is on a Thinkpad T60 with ATI X1400 graphics.
