to respond to myself: I bit the bullet and installed one of the latest
memstick images of -CURRENT , and am back up and running - with amdgpu and
drm-current, and KDE (which had stopped working for me on the previous
setup a while ago).
Sorry if anyone's gone to any lengths here, though I didn't get any
feedback.
Thx
Michael
