Hi
After installing Kernel 5.6 I am getting this error:
[ please send a personal CC, thank you! ]

This used to work just fine, with Version 5.5, Gentoo/Funtoo Linux.
Very strange.
With Kernel 5.5 everything was fine:

Ben -- probably the ACR changes in 5.6 don't fall back nicely anymore
when there's no firmware? The load shouldn't be failed, just GR
disabled...
Zeno -- if you grab linux-firmware, it should be all better. Not sure
if you're missing it on purpose or by accident.

Thank you, Ilia
I will try that on my Gentoo/Funtoo machine now. So far linux-firmware
was not needed with Kernel 5.5, so it was not installed on my machine.

It was needed on 5.5 as well. It's just that it fell back gracefully
without firmware, and you didn't get any acceleration features.

Thank you, Ilia
Installing linux-firmware-20200122 on Gentoo/Funtoo Linux with Kernel
5.6 did not really help.
I still get the same message.

is there any other Kernel setting I need for 5.6?

Do I need any of these enabled for linux-firmware to load properly in
Kernel 5.6?
-*- Firmware loading facility
│ │ () Build named firmware
blobs into the kernel binary
│ │ [ ] Enable the firmware
sysfs fallback mechanism
│ │ [ ] Enable compressed
firmware support

Depends on distro specifics. Also the firmware has to be available at
the time that nouveau loads. The corollary to this is:
If it's built into the kernel, then the firmware must also be included
in the kernel (since this happens before any FS stuff)
If it's loaded as a module from initrd, then initrd must contain the firmware
If you need help including firmware in the right place, a distro
support channel is probably your best shot.

Ok, thank you. So far no luck on the end.

Please let me know if the fallback version comes back to life.
