Still on iMac, installed fedora 18 on partition previously used by Arch (would
boot using KMS into black vts). fedora using kernel 3.6. Behaved like Arch did
previously; had to use kernel option 'nomodeset' to get any vt screens and that
stopped radeon module from being loaded by X 
(Xorg.0.log had: '[KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported' and
this was followed by 'No screens found')

Now upgraded fedora to use kernel 3.9.2 and, as with Arch, get black vts even
if 'nomodeset' on kernel boot line.

The current kernel 3.9.2 is of no use on my system; I have no way to boot it
and run vt screens. Others who might need nomodeset may also be affected.
