The file radeon/RV730_pfp.bin is there in the corresponding
kernel-firmware package at /lib/firmware/radeon/RV730_pfp.bin . Perhaps it
is missing from the initrd file that was generated when ypu installed it
(I have been using the traditional method of generating this file rather
than using dracut for various reasons).

xend fails to start in rawhide/F12 on x86_64
by Pasi Kärkkäinen
Hello,
I was just playing with Fedora on x86_64 box, and I upgraded it from F11
to F12 rawhide.
I installed xen rpms and myoung xendom0 kernel, added /etc/fstab
/proc/xen entry and rebooted into xen.
Now it seems xend doesn't start for some reason. Has anyone noticed this?
[root@f12test ~]# /etc/init.d/xend start

Re: [Fedora-xen] is kernel-xen PAE ?
by jehan procaccia
Ok, to be sure, I though I could check kernel compiled option somewhere
... but can find where ....
No I haven't tried yet for the guests, I would have prefered to be sure
first .
By the way, I supose that a clean solution would be to upgrade my 32 bit
system (domain-0) to a 64 bit one !
but apparently it is not an easy thing to do :-(
http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/123800
is there a simpler solution ?

is kernel-xen PAE ?
by jehan procaccia
I noticed that with my 32 bit architecture kernel-xen, I can see my 16
Gb of ram !
does that mean that kernel-xen is PAE enabled by default ? how can I
check that ?
then, if it does manages my 16 GB, will my para-virtualized 32 bits xen
guests could have more than 4 GB each ?

Can't install F11
by jeff sacksteder
When I try to install a PV instance of F11, I'm getting an 'invalid
kernel' message. The Dom0 is Sun xVM - equivalent to Xen 3.1.4
I have tried both the i386 and x86_64 versions.
This was supposed to be a straightforward config. Is there something
I'm missing?
