Summary: when attempting to build DRM into the kernel
                    2.6.36-rc3, kernel locks up at loading firmware stage
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/Radeon
        AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org

.config used to build the kernel
I have attempted to build a kernel with DRM and radeon firmware for a radeon
3850HD (rv670) card so as to set the graphics mode before the initrd loads.
I used a kernel.org 2.6.36-rc3 source with options based on the Debian
Experimental 2.6.35. I have built kernel 2.6.36-rc3 successfully with DRM as
loadable modules successfully, but with the kernel whose .config is attached,
the kernel locks up at the message "loading RV670 Microcode" even though the
microcode is apparently built into the kernel.
