I have an RV730 (Radeon HD 4650). |

You already solved your problem, but this might be useful for future reference: |

This thread got me to recheck my setup, and it appears that you do not need to |
| 33 |
set up the firmware stuff in the kernel at all. My kernel setup: |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
>> (0) % zgrep -i firmware /proc/config.gz |
| 36 |
CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD=y |
| 37 |
# CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL is not set |
| 38 |
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="" |
| 39 |
# CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID is not set |
| 40 |
# Firmware Drivers |
| 41 |
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP=y |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
The microcode is loaded automatically: |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
marcec marcec # dmesg|grep -i microcode |
