i copied over the HAWAII.bin drivers from here -- http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/
seems like they have not made it to the linux-firmware update yet....
also, @fritsch, i complied my own kernel --

With 3.12rc7 xbmc still starts up on boot just fine, but with 3.13rc2-1 it fails. I can manually restart xbmc and it comes up, which is strange.. in any case - on both kernels I still have the artifacts.

Looks like someone already posted in the bug report that it doesn't work for them either. Guess we wait for another patch. I will now try and figure out why xbmc doesn't automatically start with the 3.13 kernel.
