I deleted my xorg.conf and X is still working without any problems. |

As I have a different GPU: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/verde_ce.bin radeon/verde_mc.bin radeon/verde_me.bin radeon/verde_pfp.bin radeon/verde_rlc.bin radeon/verde_smc.bin radeon/TAHITI_uvd.bin amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin" |

ditto. |

|
| 51 |
I have also configured: |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_USERPTR=y |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
IIRC this option is only available in newer kernels. |

ditto, but these USE flags are different on my system: |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
openmax openvg osmesa pax_kernel pic xa xvmc |
| 78 |
-bindist -gles2 |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
The r600-llvm-compiler USE-flag isn't available on my system. |

I haven't installed sys-kernel/linux-firmware but |
| 91 |
x11-drivers/radeon-ucode instead. |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
I've downloaded the microcode for my AMD CPU direct from AMD homepage. |

As I haven't configured CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD, I never done this. |

THX a lot for your information. There are some differences between our |
| 104 |
configurations. I'm very busy atm but when I have more time I will check |
| 105 |
it out. |
