RADEONDRIGetVersion failed to open the DRM

[Cooper Yuan]

it is a configuration problem.

what are the results of following commands: "sudo lsmod | grep radeon" and
"sudo lsmod | grep drm".
if  either is null, please probe radeon module firstly by using
"sudo modprobe radeon". if this command fails, please make sure you
already installed drm kernel module to /lib/modules/<kernel
version>/kenrel/driver/char/drm.

the result of "sudo dmesg" is useful, please attach it.
