You are using radeonfb on it? or vesafb?
first test is to try without either of those installed.
From memory though that machines an Xpress 200M which is the the worst graphics card for use with open drivers and has always caused no-end of pain.
Its also mostly undocumented when it comes to errata and workarounds.
