--- Comment #30 from lukenshiro at ngi.it 2012-09-05 18:31:11 UTC ---
I have a similar problem: right after boot, my screen works (displays kernel
messages) until maybe drm module is loaded (I guess by udev), then it becomes
immediately blank and monitor is blinking, and then works again some time after
fbcon and radeon modules are manually loaded in boot scripts (before starting
X).
It depends on modeset=1; if I use modeset=0 this behaviour doesn't appear, bua
X cannot run without KMS.

I have an AMD A4-3300 APU and using a (vanilla) linux kernel 3.5.3 (on
Slackware64)

The real problem is that some time (a couple of minutes or so) after video
adapter is in idle mode (e.g. if I am not using the PC), monitor blinks (as in
low power mode) screen is blank and system is no longer recoverable (unless I
use e.g. ssh just to power it off).
I don't know if the two problems are really related or not. Voltage problems?

I have these messages in dmesg, too, when it happens:
