^^^^^
"Aruba" is the default firmware and probably that's not what you want.
You need to find your own chipset and build correct flavor(s) for you.
Do "grep 'could not load firmware image' /var/log/messages". For
example, you will see something like this:
May 2 21:48:35 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: could not load firmware image
'radeon/TAHITI_uvd.bin'
May 2 21:48:35 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: could not load firmware image
'radeon/TAHITI_vce.bin'
This means you need need "tahiti" firmware and you will have to build
and install it. Note you may need multiple flavors. For example, I had
to build two flavors for the above GPU, i.e., aruba and tahiti.
May 3 08:46:38 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image
'radeon/ARUBA_pfp.bin'
May 3 08:46:38 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image
'radeon/ARUBA_me.bin'
May 3 08:46:38 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image
'radeon/ARUBA_rlc.bin'
May 3 08:46:38 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image
'radeon/TAHITI_uvd.bin'
May 3 08:46:38 xxxxxx kernel: drmn0: successfully loaded firmware image
'radeon/TAHITI_vce.bin'
