Removing the UVD firmware kinda works.
What i mean is with ONLY kernel 3.14 i get a successful boot but i end up in
mouse pointer and black screen trying to force some graphics again and again
with no success , in kernels 3.12 and 3.13 same issue hang on boot , i found a
workaround as i was searching that is to remove the DM and start without
graphics then enter my creds and startx only then and only in kernel 3.14 i get
a successful boot with correct graphics running.
I dont know until when this is going to work or after the update of 3.14 etc
etc.
So issue still exists
