I can't actually send from the machine so its hard to include stuff. I'm |

I'm on kernel 4.9.16-gentoo |
| 5 |
GPU is Turks XT (Radeon HD 6500/7670) |
| 6 |
Kernel is setup according to the gentoo radeon guide, I compared it to |
| 7 |
4.4.6 kernel, which has been working for months. Booting off that older |
| 8 |
kernel doesn't change anything, so it can't be the kernel. |

These are a manual transcript of selected Xorg.0.log errors |
| 11 |
open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory |
| 12 |
Device (s) detected, but none match those in config file |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The /dev/dri directory does not exist. If it's created by udev, maybe I |
| 15 |
have a udev problem? |
