KMS doesn't require vt(9): it will work happily with syscons. The
downside of using syscons is the inability to do VT switch (ie. using
Ctrl+Alt+Fx to switch to a text console, or getting a console back when
exiting from X).

Check your kernel config and remove any builtin "drm" or "radeon"
modules (and any kernel video drivers). The appropriate module will be
loaded automatically by X.Org.
