Dmesg
There is no legacy driver for kernel 3.12+ for ati cards and now there is no
open source drivers that can be used with kernel 3.12+ , the issue is that
while it tries to load module radeon the whole system hangs on boot tried with
kernels 3.12 and 3.13 and 3.14 on 3.14 once every 5-10 boots it MAYBE boot with
radeon.dpm=0 but this is really random and may not happen for 1 day and may
happen 2 times in a row but only with 3.14 on 3.12 and 3.13 system freeze is
100%.
I put the dmesg as attachment hope i can help any other way you need me cause
there is no driver available for radeon 2-3-4k anymore open or not so we can
work with
