The radeon driver does not work on my laptop.
I sent a bug report here a week ago, but got no responses.
What is the right place to send bug reports for the radeon driver?
The bug is that LVDS output does not work. This is, according to lspci,
a 5000M series Madison Radeon.
When I insmod the module, the screen stays in text mode and appears
locked up.
If something is connected to the HDMI port, I get a framebuffer console
there. LVDS stays in broken text mode though.
When I start X, the HDMI screen turns dark and stays dark and the LVDS
screen also stays dark and I have to reboot.
The driver loads the REDWOOD firmware OK.
Who is responsible for this? Where do I send my bug report?
Thanks,
Felix

Please file a bug report here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/
choose DRI as the product and DRM/Radeon as the component. Make sure
to attach your dmesg output and Xorg log.
Also, is this a PowerXpress laptop? I.e., laptop with both integrated
and discrete GPUs?
