Hi again,
I have re-installed OpenBSD without xdm installing at first installing boot.
Then I downloaded "
http://firmware.openbsd.org/firmware/5.7/radeondrm-firmware-20131002p0.tgz"
and extracted it to /etc/firmware.
Then run fw_update -a and I saw my new firmwares have installed correctly.
At now I installed vifm and see that vifm mesasge me:
"Vifm requires a console that can support color." and exit!
BTW: I have not resolved the last issue about X and maybe this new issue
relay to my last Xorg issue.
How can I (at least) install the vifm and then Xorg?
Can any one installing OpenBSD on the notebook?!
