Hi,

Apparently the latest version available from sys-kernel/linux-firmware is missing the .smc files required by newer kernels (3.11 onwards) to enable acceleration on Radeon cards. These are available on the live ebuild though. Can we get a nice friendly bump to a newer snapshot to get them?

Thanks guys!

Reproducible: Always
