--- Comment #23 from Jonas <jojonintendo at tutanota.com> ---
I have some news. Yesterday I installed latest Debian Sid, which includes a 2
days old firmware-amd-graphics
(https://packages.debian.org/sid/firmware-amd-graphics), and I see a pretty big
improvement overall. I'm not home right now, but yesterday I could play every
Valve game I own in good conditions.

Difference is that it no longer crashes for me, although sometimes it still
stutters a little. It's like ~70% of the time it plays smooth, and ~30% it
stutters. I tried to make it crash, but I couldn't, even with high details and
some options pushed to max.

So, dpm seems to fail sometimes, but it is definitely improving for Grenada
cards (although system still recognises GPU as Hawaii and uses Hawaii
firmware). Many thanks to the developers that take care of this, I really
appreciate your work and effort.

I hope you guys get the same results. It seems we finally get to play with our
shiny R9 390!
