Hi *.
I have a problem with gentoo-sources 4.8 and my AMD R7 370. On kernel 4.7 eveything is working fine. Here's config: http://pastebin.com/6xB6uKsx Almost the same config on 4.8.3: http://pastebin.com/5vNAkBRB
When 4.8.3 starts (via UEFI stub) I only see this on one screen: https://transfer.sh/PfPVJ/img-20161025-143601.jpg other are blank (suspend). System starts "underneath".
Any ideas?

Maybe you should try and disable this: CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
My 2¢. |

Code: | CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="iwlwifi-7265D-16.ucode i915/skl_dmc_ver1.bin intel/ibt-hw-37.8.10-fw-1.10.3.11.e.bseq intel/ibt-hw-37.8.bseq brcm/BCM20702A1-0b05-17cb.hcd radeon/pitcairn_ce.bin radeon/pitcairn_mc.bin radeon/pitcairn_me.bin radeon/pitcairn_pfp.bin radeon/pitcairn_rlc.bin radeon/pitcairn_smc.bin radeon/TAHITI_uvd.bin radeon/TAHITI_vce.bin" |
I think kernel 4.8 uses some additional firmware compared to 4.7, specifically radeon/pitcairn_k_smc.bin for the revised pitcairn chips. |
