 |

Hi,
Recantly I upgrade kernel from 3.10.* to 3.12.* and decide configure preboot splash. So, I followed gentoo wiki Xorg/Configuration and Radeon
My previous kernel in terms og graphics card worked really well even wasn't smartest config (take a look CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR was lackinf '/' so no fw was loaded:
| Code: | #

OK, and now I have preboot splash but i.e. mplayer is unable to plat movie in full screen mode, some problem with compiz under XFCE4. What I can see:

| dmesg will probably tell you why direct rendering does not work. |

It looks like you don't have the correct firmware for your graphics chipset set in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE. You probably need those mentioned under "PALM" in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Radeon#Firmware
The reason why it worked with previous kernels is possibly that radeon was built as module, so could load firmware from disk after boot. |

If you didn't want to use fglrx, you would probably not install it. this means
emerge -1 ati-drivers
eselect opengl set ati
should should do the trick. |

Just for record, I was busy so I took me a while to compile kernel. I've change CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE from:
| Code: | | radeon/SUMO_me.bin radeon/SUMO_pfp.bin radeon/SUMO_rlc.bin radeon/SUMO_uvd.bin |
to:
| Code: | | radeon/PALM_me.bin radeon/PALM_pfp.bin radeon/SUMO_me.bin radeon/SUMO_pfp.bin radeon/SUMO_rlc.bin radeon/SUMO_uvd.bin |
In meantime I upgrade kernel from 12.1-geek to 12.4 geek and change some other config setting for different problem and I got kernel panic.
So, let me compile 12.1 and see what happend. |
