I haven't had much to do with radeons for some years, but I suspect it's
one of three things:-
;1. You don't have firmware-linux-nonfree installed
;2. You have firmware-linux-nonfree installed but it doesn't match your
kernel.
;3. You build the firmware into the initrd for a new kernel but the path
is wrong
1. check you have the firmware installed:-
$ dpkg --get-selections | grep firmware-linux-nonfree
If it's missing:-
# apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree
2. check your the version of the firmware package and the kernel image:-
$ dpkg -l $packagename
3. Check the output of the following command for an incorrect or missing
path:-
$ grep CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE /boot/grub/config-`uname -r`
Kind regards
