I'm trying to get my rx580 to work with the free amdgpu or ati drivers under Guix. I got some tips at the hnode page for the card, anybody knows how to get this to work?

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 :<

Closing this report, as it does not constitute a bug. help-guix@gnu.org
would be a more appropriate channel to ask for help.

Thanks,

Andreas
