... on x86, we have disabled radeondrmkms on most r100 and r200
based chipsets because there's bug with setting up the colour
map and you end up with a broken display and X11.  :-(  i've
spent a quite some time trying to figure this out with no
success... that's why we disabled it in the end.

the older drm code works on these chipsets... that won't get you
KMS though.
