First: Thanks Alex for looking into this and making progress !

I did as instructed, but couldn't yet get accel to work (llvmpipe is used). A
few questions:
1. Do I need to rename the firmware files to uppercase ? (HAWAII_ce.bin instead
of hawaii_ce.bin) ?
2. Does the current radeon stuff already work with the glamor that got merged
into xorg-server 1.16 or do I need the external glamor ? (does that work with
1.16 ?)
3. As far as I know, the "NoAccel" xorg.conf option was renamed to "Accel". Is
that still necessary with your xf86-video-ati patch ?
