For radeonfb, I'm moving away from linux pci_ids.h list. It's just too much
hell to keep in sync and is always a patch reject nightmare... At least for
now, and until it's "finished", my new radeonfb uses a separate file I
stuffed in drivers/video/aty/ that contains a copy of XFree ATI PCI IDs.

I may go back to pci_ids.h once the driver is complete enough, but I'd
prefer not doing so, that would help keeping in sync with XFree.

BTW. Another problem I've been reported recently, at least on one case,
the BIOS ROM wasn't properly read on an x86 (signature was 0). I have
to investigate more, but since the old driver worked, I tend to think
the memory image may have been correct. I wonder about allowing for
some kind of fallback here...

Ben.
