Firmware packages are installed on first boot on a non-ramdisk kernel
after radeondrm tries to load the firmware.  Is it loaded if you reboot
the machine?

The changes to support radeondrm on sparc64 were done on an xvr-100
which is an earlier generation of radeon (rv100).  It looks like you have
an xvr-300 with an rv380 so perhaps something else is needed.
Including full dmesg output would be helpfull.
