Hello,

I have the same issue on another machine either. Blank screen during the
boot. The Radeon graphics framebuffer device doesn't work anymore.

Here is the modifed code from the DRM updates (drm-next-2025-07-30):

-
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/diff/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_fbdev.c?id=260f6f4fda93c8485c8037865c941b42b9cba5d2

This change just bumps the driver version it shouldn't affect the fbdev.

This only affects acceleration, it should not affect fbdev.

What chip are you using?  Can you attach your full dmesg output?  Can
you bisect?  This cultrit could be a core drm change.

Do you have a patch for reverting these modifications? I would like to
revert these modifications for testing.

Thanks in advance,
Christian

Hello Alex,

Thanks for your answer.

I use a BARTS chip (Radeon HD6870). I would like to bisect but I don't have time for it currently. Sorry

There are some other user reports:

- https://forum.hyperion-entertainment.com/viewtopic.php?p=60606#p60606
- https://forum.hyperion-entertainment.com/viewtopic.php?p=60595#p60595

They use other Radeon graphics chips.

Bug report: https://github.com/chzigotzky/kernels/issues/15

What do you think about the following commit?

@Hypex
Could you please attach your full dmesg output?

Thanks,
Christian
