Following upgrade DRI is no longer enabled for display: (WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering is not supported when VGA arb is necessary for the device (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI.This is fixed with kernel mode setting, AIUI. I don't think it will be fixed for userspace mode setting.
Thanks for that. radeon.modeset=1 kernel option works. However I get no output on VTs. Seems to be a number related bugs with radeon driver.
Might be worth keeping this bug report visible to give a pointer to others with same difficulty.
Many thanks Dick
