5 I have indeed problems with firmware.
6 I have a PC and use ethernet which works.
7 I have an AMD Radeon 6xxx card. I tried both with linux-firmware
8 AND radeon-ucode, but both fail to load. They do
9 exist in /lib/firmware/radeon: CAYMAN_mc.bin CAYMAN_me.bin
10 CAYMAN_pfp.bin CAYMAN_rlc.bin
11 I guess dmesg explains things better than i do.

18 Look at the area from 1.576863 to 62.228490, includes the 60s
19 freeze from switching to clocksource tsc.
