Talk:Xorg/Configuration

The radeon specific wiki page http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Radeon identifies firmwares that are needed with newer kernels (3.9+), namely UVDs and SMCs (needed in kernels 3.11+). This page does not reference these same firmwares, and without an appropriate UVD boot may pause for about a minute (which lead me to suspect it had hung when first testing 3.9.11-r1). Maybe this page should reference the radeon page


 * Certainly - go head; I have no experience (nor a Radeon card) to deal with, but it definitely makes sense to refer to the Radeon page - especially if this can lighten up the Xorg/Configuration one. --SwifT (talk) 16:54, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

before startx so you're not crashing out of the box....
 * This is already mentioned at using startx, in the paragraph just below the command. --SwifT (talk) 08:40, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
