hello coreboot bois and girlz,i have succesfully booted my system with
the Richland CPU installed with a Nvidia GT210 card.

also it seems that IOMMU is working now... maybe cause i have microcode
updates in the kernel included this time ?

so i have to change my bugreport as it seems that this coreboot port +
Seabios has somehow problems with Radeon Cards .... both the IGPU and
addon cards

will feed your with extra news.

your kinky nekoboi
