Bug#908632: linux-image-4.19.0-rc3-amd64-unsigned: kernel 4.19 fails to load amdgpu driver on R9 270X.
Hi!
Did as you suggested:
# apt purge firmware-amd-graphics
# rm -rf /lib/firmware/amdgpu
# apt install firmware-amd-graphics
Then I copied file by file, restarting the system between each copy until I got a working graphical environment.
The files needed for me are:
pitcairn_mc.bin
pitcairn_smc.bin
pitcairn_pfp.bin
pitcairn_me.bin
pitcairn_ce.bin
pitcairn_rlc.bin
Would you like me to test anything else?
Regards,
Felipe.
