Description of problem:
I found this on ia64 but I can't imagine it is ia64 specific....

I have filed this upstream at:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14826

but it would be nice to get the fix into Fedora so we can finally have X working
on ia64 (most of which have Radeon cards).

----- Bug as filed at freedesktop.org ----

In xf86-video-ati/src/radeon_driver.c this check appears to always fail:

 if (xf86SetOperatingState(resVga, info->pEnt->index, ResUnusedOpr))


From looking at xf86SetOperatingState it appears that it returns a pointer on
success and NULL on failure.  Looking at all other drivers I see that no other
driver is looking at the return value at all.

It appears what was meant was:

if (!xf86SetOperatingState(resVga, info->pEnt->index, ResUnusedOpr))

Or. perhaps the intention was to not check the return value at all.  I was
unable to find any other driver that looks at it.

This seems to resolve the issues I was seeing with the Radeon card not
initializing on ia64 running Fedora.
