So there seems to be a long one minute delay before the following message?
[ 1895.904100] r600_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/RV710_pfp.bin"
Is searching for the firmware taking so long? I do not want to install the firmware being in non-free.
The kernel firmware loader takes a minute or two to time out; you might be able to adjust that. The ucode is required for acceleration and interrupts, so it's recommended if you want to be able to fully utilize the hardware.
