Config is mostly taken from a working amd64 + radeon system. |
| 4 |
linux-firmware is installed. No errors or warning in the the xorg |
| 5 |
logs, but startx returns a blank screen on both the VGA and HDMI |
| 6 |
outputs. It also fails with no xorg.conf. There's no process called X |
| 7 |
or anything related to X, if i ssh in from another machine and run |
| 8 |
'pgrep -lf X' as root. |
