I am running 11.2-PRERELEASE with a Cedar PRO [Radeon HD 5450/6350]
and I dont have any issues like that
here is what I do to get it working for me; and I have used more or
less the same setup since 10.3-RELEASE
In my loader.conf I have
radeonkms_load="YES"
radeonkmsfw_CEDAR_pfp_load="YES"
radeonkmsfw_CEDAR_rlc_load="YES"
radeonkmsfw_CEDAR_me_load="YES"
I use a static xorg.conf as well In there I have the following bits
1 Section "ServerLayout"
2 Identifier "X.org Configured"
3 Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
4 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
5 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
6 Option "AIGLX" "true"
7 EndSection
...
19 Section "Module"
20 Load "dbe"
21 Load "dri"
22 Load "dri2"
23 Load "extmod"
24 Load "record"
25 Load "freetype"
26 Load "bitmap"
27 Load "type1"
28 Load "glx"
29 EndSection
...
50 Section "Device"
51 Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
52 Option "DRI" "true"
53 Identifier "Card0"
54 Driver "radeon"
55 BusID "PCI:3:0:0"
56 EndSection
