After latest update to Factory I can only get llvmpipe

Any clue as to why?

It seems to not be loading kms:

93.846] (II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported.
93.846] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory

First, i see you are booting with radeon.dpm=1. Do you have a self-compiled kernel? I would say no, as indicated kernel version is either from O:F, or kernel: repos.
The dpm code will be part of the kernel only starting with 3.11 version.
Try looking into dmesg about radeon/drm messages to check why drm is not enabled.

I’d say that it choked on the dpm parameter lol! and a cascading effect

  • no radeon drm driver, no kms
  • no kms, no radeon xorg driver … fallback to fbdev xorg driver
  • no access to a 3D driver, fallback to software (llvmpipe)

I would also say that’s very likely :wink:

Yes, the dpm was the issue. Thank you. I just can’t seem to find a drm-next repo with 3.11 pre-release kernel yet in any repos.

Usually, Kernel:HEAD updates to new kernel version at the time of rc2. Patience :wink:
(Also, note that some newer chips require newer firmware)

It there somewhere else I can change it besides yast2 bootloader? The reason being it doesn’t seem to save that setting when I remove it for some reason.

But how did you added it in the first place?
Try looking in /etc/default/grub

It worked in the last version before I updated it to rc3 in Factory. I am also using grub2.

It looks like kernel-firmware wasn’t installed… oops. Works now.
