I confirm Apple PowerBook G4 17" would work with the radeonfb compiled into kernel. I just re-compiled 3.2.0-23-powerpc-smp and set the following options:

3886c3886
< # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set
---
> CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS=y
 3948c3948
< CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m

< CONFIG_FB_ATY128=m
---
> CONFIG_FB_ATY128=y
 3954c3954
< CONFIG_FB_ATY=m
---
> CONFIG_FB_ATY=y

And that made the suspend work and I can switch to tty's which were garbled earlier. Please apply the changes into kernel config, otherwise the PowerBook is serioysly broken on ubuntu.

I also need to apply the following as kernel params:

radeon.modeset=0 video=radeonfb:1440x900-24@60
