Date: Sat, 25 May 2019 15:14:06 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87mujaxs75.fsf@sdf.lonestar.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1hUb3w-0003pZ-15@eggs.gnu.org> (Marlon's message of "Sat, 25 May 2019 15:06:25 -0300")

The "[drm:amdgpu_init [amdgpu]] *ERROR* VGACON disables amdgpu kernel
modesetting." in your dmesg output comes from the 'nomodeset' parameter.
If possible, I'd try setting up an SSH daemon, removing 'nomodeset' from
your kernel command-line, and getting dmesg output remotely. (I assume
you don't get any screen output without 'nomodeset'.)

I had the same issue with my RX460. Modesetting (to my knowledge) isn't
possible without the nonfree firmware, so I just gave in and created a
package for the blobs.

There _may_ be a way to use your card without the firmware, but if there
is, I'm not aware of it. Sorry :<
