In case it's relevant, X11 starting up on the same device spouts:

(**) RADEON(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(II) RADEON(0): Pixel depth = 24 bits stored in 4 bytes (32 bpp pixmaps)
(==) RADEON(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(II) Loading sub module "vgahw"
(II) LoadModule: "vgahw"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libvgahw.so
(II) Module vgahw: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 7.1.1, module version = 0.1.0
ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0
(II) RADEON(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000
(==) RADEON(0): RGB weight 888
(II) RADEON(0): Using 8 bits per RGB (8 bit DAC)

On this Radeon 9500 a default agg build exits silently with failure code 1. You have to -v it to get it to say:

Framebuffer device uses 268435456 bytes of memory.
Video mode: 720x350 with 8 bits per pixel.
LUT8: Setting up colormap
Double buffering enabled
red channel: 0 / 8
green channel: 0 / 8
blue channel: 0 / 8
Total bits per pixel: 8
ERROR: The pixel format of your framebuffer is not supported.
Closing framebuffer device

0/8 bits? Sounds like misdetection... the video driver is Debian radeonfb

This box is net-accessible 24/7 if anyone wants to probe it
