I did wonder about the instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING. Apart from the "DynamicPM" option, all other options mentioned in UPDATING are the default= s, according to radeon(4). So why set them? The data from my Xorg.0.log seems = to confirm that they are all activated. For the record, I've set _none_ of the options mentioned in UPDATING in my xorg.conf, and it _still works_ if the = wacky patch is removed. With the patch, no combination of options produces a work= ing driver. BTW, I think it should read "Int10" instead of "int10" in UPDATING?
