Upon starting my computer using Kaveri integrated graphics, I get a black
screen with nothing at all. It completed the installation just fine on
integrated however.

Switching to my dedicated Nvidia card lets me boot however, and under GNOME
Control Center's Details it says I'm using Gallium on llvmpipe.

When loading up openSUSE, I see these errors:

nouveau E[  PGRAPH][0000:01:00.0] failed to load fuc409c
nouveau E[     DRM] Pointer to flat panel table invalid
nouveau E[   PFIFO][0000:01:00.0] unsupported engines 0x00000001
nouveau E[     DRM] Failed to create kernel channel, -22
cik_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/kaveri_mec2.bin"
[drm:cik_init [radeon]] *ERROR* Failed to load firmware!
radeon 0000:01:00.0: Fatal error during GPU init

So I'm assuming the nouveau part is because Maxwell isn't supported, but the
last three errors and the lack of anything appearing when using my integrated
graphics lead me to believe that there is no Kaveri support right now. Which is
odd, considering it ran 13.2 just fine.

Specs:
AMD A10-7700K underclocked @ 3GHz
Gigabyte GTX 960 ITX
8GB 1866MHz RAM
