A quick search on the interwebs mention an AMD R700 family, HD4350 card. According to: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Radeon such a card requires in your make.conf: VIDEO_CARDS="radeon r600" emerge 'sys-kernel/linux-firmware' and in your kernel specify the following firmware: radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/RS780_uvd.bin radeon/RS780_pfp.bin radeon/ RS780_me.bin > When I looked at the X log it was clearly > loading the driver, which failed with something like "cannot find > /dev/card1".
