  As far as I have tested it on my machine the radeon module needs to be loaded
with KMS enabled (no radeon.modeset=0 parameter) to get the video
kernel-cmdline option interpreted (/proc/cmdline). If you f.i. need to use
uvesafb instead give the following option: uvesafb.mode_option=1600x1200-24 at 60
(1920x1200 is no Vesa mode). The same parameters can be given on modeprobe
leaving the module name (radeon., uvesafb.) out
(/usr/src/linux-ver/Documentation/fb).
