Your laptop has an AMD GPU, there are known suspend issues with them.
TuxOnIce changes the device-independent code for suspend (I don't know the
details), it probably won't fix this problem. I don't know what's exactly
needed for hibernation, I think it should work regardless of what
Gutenprint 5.2.10 has experimental support for that printer.
They have clear definitions: driver is the code running on the main CPU.
There are drivers in the kernel (DRM: direct rendering manager; radeon), X
server (DDX; xf86-video-ati), Mesa (DRI; e.g. r600g). Firmware and microcode
are different words for the same (Linux calls it firmware,
I think you can trust this: Usage permission[:] Only when you are using with
Epson printer. It's nonfree, restricting freedom zero. I haven't checked if
it has other interesting restrictions.
There are free Japanese fonts packaged in Trisquel, e.g.
At least the ME microcode for R600 (and probably earlier CP microcode) is
simple code with separate instructions for reading or writing registers, Rob
Clark of Freedreno partially reverse engineered the instruction format.
Newer Radeons have different ISAs. (ME is microengine, CP is
Try installing it via aptitude: it will propose several solution, one is to
downgrade some packages and install them. I don't know how these packages
differ nor if this causes other problems.
I don't expect any improvement here: it still needs Radeon blobs (VGA ROM and
microcode), the devices available in Europe will be expensive, code needed
for them while released won't be contributed upstream, there will be no
English documentation, so no one will have a Loongson 3B device nor
Nouveau has replaced most NVIDIA microcode needed for 3d acceleration.
Freedreno reverse engineers the Adreno microcode that is very similar to
Radeon R600. I don't know any projects working on other Radeon microcode
(like R700 which has much different patterns than R600). It might be
