Sorry for the really delayed response.

Yes, I am 100% sure I am booting with UEFI. And I don't see to have any 
issues. Again, the only bug I still encounter is that occasionally X 
hangs and has to restart the driver. And if I look at the console, I get 
errors about "GPU not responding. Attempting to reset GPU", and so on.
