That's weird...  Can you get the contents of
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/modalias, make sure it looks like
pci:v00001002d000095C4sv00001043sd000019D3bc03sc00i00 and then give us
the output of /sbin/modprobe -R -b $modalias.  This *should* show
radeon.  If not then something's screwy in your modprobe config.  If yes
then I don't understand why udev isn't loading it.

Cheers,
Julien
