I was on irc a few days ago trying to get the new amdgpu driver up and running on my system. I am able to get the kernel booted successfully, however X via amdgpu is turning out to be a real roadblock. It is the problem with amdgpu_drv.so seeing gbm_create_device as an undefined symbol. From what little I understand, I may be needing a more recent xserver to resolve this...

I don't think that would help.

Does the attached xf86-video-amdgpu patch fix the problem?

If not, you can manually load the glamoregl module in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to pull in libgbm:

Section "Module" Load "glamoregl" EndSection
