Just installed the Oct 3rd snapshot on my desktop.  During the boot

the machine froze, but it continued running and I was able to SSH into
the machine.  Here is the DMESG.  Looks like some issues with DRM.  At a
bit of a loss on the next troubleshooting steps, any ideas?

Exact same issue here... drm effect.
boot -c
disable radeondrm
then install the firmware manually (firmware-update will not see it
unfortunately). Then reboot.

If your machine has network, jsg would probably be happy to see what's
going on in /var/log/messages while the machine loses boot...
Thanks -- installing the firmware package resolved the issue.  I
just assumed that the firmware updater would grab it if needed.
According to jsg@, the KMS code is able to figure out that the firmware
is needed, and not do the video change if it's not installed.

Obviously, that still fails from some cards: the KMS code doesn't get
an error, and the video change still occur.

So a log of what the kernel says when it's switching while not having
the firmware would be useful for trying to fix that...
The only thing I see in /var/log/messages was on the end of the dmesg I posted:
