Interesting! o_O I remember the firmware blobs changing at some point in the past and my dmesg on this laptop complained about missing firmware. I don't know if your card possesses the chipset the OS says it is. In the first instance I suggest you add in the kernel what dmesg reports as failing to load "radeon/RV730_pfp.bin". If the hardware wants it, you better provide it. Then reboot and see if it starts up happily, or reports of more firmware blobs failing to load. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Thank you for sharing your kernal configuration. Comparing it to mine, I have found only two differences. Namely, my kernel configuration had: CONFIG_DRM_VGEM=n (you had "y" here) CONFIG_DRM_UDL=n (you had "m" here) I consired the second one irrelevant. So, I have changed the first one and recompiled everything you mentioned. (VIDEO_CARDS variable in my make.conf alsowas the same.) However, after reboot, I have got the same startx error message. Looking onto dmesg, I found the following messages related to Radeon video card: [1.096815] [drm] radeon kernel modesetting enabled. [1.097070] [drm] initializing kernel modesetting (RV740 0x1002:0x94B3 0x1002:0x0D00 0x00). ... [1.098286] [drm] radeon: 512M of VRAM memory ready [1.098341] [drm] radeon: 1024M of GTT memory ready.

[1.098655] radeon :01:00.0: Fatal error during GPU init [1.098710] radeon: finishing device. I have not included RV730_pfp.bin to EXTRA_FIRMWARE kernel variable. (And should not, according to the documentation.)

[gentoo-user] startx does not work for AMD/ATI Radion HD 4770
I have installed Gentoo on my second desktop computer with Gigabyte MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard, AMD Phenome II X4 945 processor, and AMD/ATI Radion HD 4770 video card. However, currently I have only the command line: startx fails to start X11 reporting the following error: ... (II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported. (EE) Fatal server error: (EE) no screens found (EE) ... (EE) Server terminated with error (1). Closing log file. ... xinit: unable to connect to X server: Bad file descriptor. and this is despite of the fact that I configured 4.19.86 gentoo kernel following instructions from https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xorg/Guide and https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Radeon#Feature_support Namely, I set EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR = /lib/firmware EXTRA_FIRMWARE = radeon/R700_rlc.bin, RV740_smc.bin, and RV710_uvd.bin DRM = y and DRM_RADEON = y as described in the second link above. (I have tried several variations but always got the above error message after startx.)
