The problem seems to be at the kernel level.
For some reason the Sams fail a test called a ring test so the hardware acceleration is disabled.
Any possible fix is way above my level.........

I'm sorry, I'm not an expert in Sam Linux kernels.

@Spectre660:

Thanks a lot for the RC 1. I've uploaded them.

But maybe point where to look in kernel/radeon_driver sources or .config or what did you change on X1000 kernel (if not closed source,NDAs,..) or if there is some kind of "ring test" code/exec to see what fails on SAMs.

TIA
