(Get the code!)
Nvidia cards will also have this problem when they turn off KMS (nomodeset or nouveau.modeset=0) . At present it is likely to be a lot worse for them; they will possibly only have 16 colours due to the limitations of the openfirmware framebuffer. To solve this you will have to build back in the legacy framebuffers:
-CONFIG_FB_RIVA=m
+CONFIG_FB_RIVA=y
-CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA=m
+CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA=y
This will disable KMS by default, but it can be re-enabled with the video=ofonly parameter. It will make the nouveau setup the same as radeon's current setup.
