I was too enthusiastic about 7.4.0, I suppose I have a big deal of bad 
carma here, because of no version of any radeon-kms drivers works stable 
for me at all. 7.4.0 just hanged out my machine without anything in logs :(

Jean, can you tell me what steps should be taken to make 
xf86-video-radeon-ums work? now it just complains about
(EE) AIGLX error: r600 does not export required DRI extension
and refuses to show anything but black screen, monitor is on, so black 
screen with correct resolution and refresh rate. does this -ums driver 
load radeon kernel module, and. if loads, what module it should load? 
will it work with vt or not?
