As this is somewhat lowlevel, it needs testing on both arches

Installed the updates:
# urpmi lib64kms1
Package lib64kms1-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64 is already installed
[root@vega lcl]# rpm -qa | grep drm | sort
drm-utils-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm2-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm_amdgpu1-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm-devel-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm_intel1-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm_nouveau2-2.4.90-1.mga6
lib64drm_radeon1-2.4.90-1.mga6
libdrm-common-2.4.90-1.mga6

As with the mesa packages best to let this run and hope nothing breaks.

In view of the configuration at hand I wonder why it fails on the radeon device.
But that is a sideremark.

Just being curious, I tried to force X to use a non-propietary driver, so I selected Xorg - vesa for this setting.
But that resulted - if I did not intervene in an unending loop: boot then a message "A new driver has been selected, you need to reboot", reboot, same message etc... At the message I can "Cancel", go to the prompt, use drakx11 to reinstate the Radeon ati driver, and then start thru with "systemctl default". I suspect this has little to do with the updates.

Update tested in i586 (laptop Eee PC 901) all ok after reboot.

On an HP Probook 6550b, 64-bit Plasma install.

Both 32-bit and 64-bit packages installed, as 32-bit Google Earth requires the 32-bit packages.

Everything looks good. Google Earth happy, so is vlc and Firefox.

Looks good on this hardware.

M6/64 real EFI hardware with Radeon HD 7310 graphics.

Selecting the following packages for update:
- lib64drm2-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64drm_amdgpu1-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64drm_intel1-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64drm_nouveau2-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64drm_radeon1-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64kms1-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
- libdrm-common-2.4.90-1.mga6.x86_64
complained for some (as it did with the Qt update):
"The following must be removed to allow other updates:
task-lxqt-minimal-0.11.0-1.mga6.noarch
because lxqt-panel is missing." I had to say 'yes' to get all 7 drm pkgs updated.
I installed also: drm-utils-2.4.90-1
Have to report back later.

M6/64 real EFI hardware with AMD/ATI/Radeon HD 7310 graphics, continued.

drm-utils provides the following programs:
/usr/bin/amdgpu_test
/usr/bin/drmdevice
/usr/bin/kms-steal-crtc
/usr/bin/kmstest
/usr/bin/kms-universal-planes
/usr/bin/modeprint
/usr/bin/modetest
/usr/bin/vbltest

 $ amdgpu_test    
Cannot open AMDGPU device: Success               ???
 $ kmstest
 $ modetest
 $ vbltest
all gave failure output as per Herman's comment 6.
 $ drmdevice
gave the output shown in the same comment.

All this is unhelpful, but in the light of all the no-grief comments - myself included -, OKing for x64 & validating.
