Bug#935456: No GPU hardware detected with kernel 5.2 for Rpi2b and Rpi3b
Package: linux-image-armmp
Version: 5.2.0-2
Hello,
I have made a guide for Debian on Rpi here:
https://github.com/evasjo/DebianSbcRaspberry
I have 3 devices (Rpi) and 2 environments (cards).
armhfCard arm64Card
4.19.0-5:
Rpi2b Success NotPossible32bitCpu
Rpi3b Success Success
Rpi3b+ Success Success
5.2.0-2:
Rpi2b Failure NotPossible32bitCpu
Rpi3b Failure Failure
Rpi3b+ Success Success
The display manager SDDM does not start with kernel 5.2" for combinations above.
New firmware for armhfCard 2018-08-05 -> 2019-08-17 // It did not help.
New firmware for arm64Card 2018-12-25 -> 2019-08-17 // It did not help.

"Success", 4.19.0-5:
Kde is running.
shutdown -h now // It does disconnect the power to the monitor.
shutdown -r now // It restarts the computer.
"Success", 5.2.0-2 (5.2.9.1):
Kde is running.
shutdown -h now // It does not disconnect the power to the monitor. It
leaves the monitor on with the text (last row): "reboot: System
halted"
shutdown -r now // It does not restart. It leaves the monitor on with
the text (last row): "Reboot failed -- System halted"
The "Failure" culprit seems to be "bcm2835-power" for Rpi2b and Rpi3b.
