So, any news on this? I 'fixed' it by removing radeon from initramfs, but as has been pointed out, thats not really a solution!?
HI guys, This kms firmware issue revealed a bug in initcpio and firmware handling. Would you mind to test a fix for the firmware loading? 2 files attached: This will load udevd before executing MODULES= - Replace /lib/initcpio/init and /lib/initcpio/hooks/udev - Remove the yourself created radeon hook from /etc/mkinitcpio.conf hooks array - Add radeon again to modules array in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf - Recreate a test initrd with mkinitcpio -g test.img and launch this initrd from your bootloader. - Don't forget to reinstall original initcpio files after that! pacman -S initcpio Thanks for your help. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org
