All of these are good general diagnostic suggestions but from what was said, I suspect it's the kernel radeon driver as I've had the same problem. If he's got a radeon card, then he needs at least the linux-firmware and change the krenel setting to build the radoeon as a module/rebuild kernel and modules. Problem solved - I'm not sure what's borked in the kernel module but it affects all versions in portage |
