A little word of caution: seeing a problem with coreboot and a given distro has proven, in the past, to not always be a coreboot problem. I'd say it more frequently uncovers a kernel problem than a coreboot problem, but I have only my limited memory and no statistics.

Other distros (fedora, opensuse) work fine.

I have tried coreboot 4.5 and the git version but neither work.

I would post this on the gentoo forum but it seems like a coreboot
problem instead as the same kernels work fine on other machines.

Any ideas? This happens with both the LiveCD/USB kernel (-nofb doesn't
change anything either) and the deblobbed hardened kernel.

+ (if anyone knows) How come I have to run fancontrol/pwmconfig to get
the fans to slow down? The proprietary bios had the same issue until I
found an option for "whisper" fan control mode.
