Sorry, have to take back that comment about 3.6-rc4+ working; I'm now getting
the "black screen" problem consistently. I was definitely running the right
kernel ("uname -a" was reporting 3.6-rc4+) and can only think that I
accidentally fat-fingered the keyboard and selected the grub "recovery" option
(ie with "nomodeset").

In short: 3.6-rc4+ just boots to a totally black screen for me, due to
something merged in the 3.6-rc series. I've bisected this, and raised a
separate bug (54662) for it. Interestingly, that commit is *also* about "radeon
fence" handling.

I presume that this bug (54129) is still also present and lurking underneath
the black screen - but obviously I can't test that.
