As stated in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1183777, linux-firmware fails to compile radeon JUNIPER.
Missing JUNIPER_smc.
Stated in kernel 3.10.7
The bug is said to be corrected for July 2013 in Ubuntu.
Can it be corrected in Gentoo?
Looking at http://packages.gentoo.org/package/sys-kernel/linux-firmware I can see the linux-firmware package has a stable release from 20130421.
There are 3 more recent versions in unstable.
I would like to keep using stable release as I am not an advanced user.
How can I ask Mike Frysinger, the maintainer of this package for next update date for this package in stable release? |

I've used radeon-ucode all along and it does include the JUNIPER_smc.bin file:
| Code: | ls /lib/firmware/radeon

This is the current one for gentoo stable:
| Code: | ls /var/db/pkg/x11-drivers | grep ucode
radeon-ucode-20130626 |

this is a fw bug not kernel bug, emerge either of the following two: latest radeon-ucode or linux-firmware
