O ofcourse, I am using the 'x.org X server' drivers, because proprietary and amd drivers both don't work(glitch out my screen or do not give a screen at all).

To activate HDMI audio while using the open-source drivers edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file and add this to the end of your "kernel" line:
radeon.audio=1
Also in terminal type this following command to update grub:
sudo update-grub
I found that I am using grub2, which uses grub.cfg. At which line? My uname -r gives back 3.8.29, but there are 3 lines that match with that given kernel name.
