Bug 593834 – x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-7.7.0: "(EE) No devices detected.", ppc

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description ernsteiswuerfel 2016-09-15 00:45:38 UTC]

X is unable to start with "radeon" driver on my PowerMac G5, 7,3 with the ultimate error "(EE) No devices detected.". Running X with "fbdev" driver on the same machine works. Also running the same machine with Ubuntu MATE 16.10 beta works with "radeon" driver.

I used the Xorg stabilization list from Bug #579266 for up-to-date x11-packages.
