Yes, you surely will need some firmware files for your GPU of your AMD CPU. The easiest way to find out what you need is: Boot with our GentooLiveCD (*) and ask: "dmesg | grep firmware" You will see every loaded firmware file ... notice it and build it into your kernel. ;-) *) It must be our GentooCD because we have a kernel patch for logging the loading of firmware files. Many Greetings, Peter P.S.: Maybe you know this already ? -> https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/ Manual_kernel_configuration
