Sometimes it doesn't matter. Pending on the motherboard, the hardware is still attached (its part of the CPU!) and seen, thus detected and configured as such. This detects both cards and populates them in order seen then assigns them separate "screens" in xorg.conf.

Sometimes it doesn't matter. Pending on the motherboard, the hardware is still attached (its part of the CPU!) and seen, thus detected and configured as such. This detects both cards and populates them in order seen then assigns them separate "screens" in xorg.conf
or only sets up the first card seen
.
The APU is first on the PCI-E bus making it "primary". Fret not! We've got your back. Until an automatic solution is found I give you the fix!

This Fix will work to get you into the GUI from disk to Install Sabayon. After install you may have to perform this fix one more time once booting from HDD, as this fix isn't copied over to the HDD during install. You will not need to perform this fix everytime. Once to get to installer, then once to setup the installed OS.

If your radeon module is still loaded after boot and
you have added it to the modprobe blacklist
, look into '''/etc/conf.d/modules''' to see if it is listed in the modules line.

creating an xorg.conf file and forcing X11 to use it to override auto-detection can help.
