Hi,
Thanks for the advice. The problem I'm trying to solve is why the AMD
firmware isn't getting incorporated in the kernel.
How you assumed that firmware isn't getting to kernel? Do you have any
errors in the log stating that?
I have to boot with
NOMODESET.
What happens if you don't? Please show error logs when you don't have
nomodeset.
The bookworm updates, while coincidental, are probably not
the cause. "Something else" happened, and I need help debugging. I can't
see amdgpu in lsmod. I can see the firmware in /var/lib/firmware.
Try this:
inxi -G
Graphics: Device-1: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] Navi 21 [Radeon RX
6800/6800 XT / 6900 XT] driver: amdgpu v: kernel
Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded:
amdgpu,ati unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,radeon,vesa resolution:
1: 1920x1200~60Hz 2: 3840x2160
OpenGL: renderer: AMD SIENNA_CICHLID (DRM 3.40.0
5.10.0-8-amd64 LLVM 12.0.1) v: 4.6 Mesa 21.1.4
I've run update-initramfs -c after replacing /var/lib/firmware. Still
not getting positive results from lsmod | grep -i amdgpu
$ lsmod | grep -i amdgpu
amdgpu 6606848 90
gpu_sched 40960 1 amdgpu
i2c_algo_bit 16384 1 amdgpu
ttm 114688 1 amdgpu
drm_kms_helper 274432 1 amdgpu
drm 618496 39 gpu_sched,drm_kms_helper,amdgpu,ttm
For me it works.
Booting with
ro loglevel=7 nomodeset
isn't giving any useable clues in boot.log
What is your GPU (integrated or not) model? Please say exact model from
inxi for example.
It feels like it's a kernel setting that got written and isn't reset
after down/up grades. This is testing. It's supposed to be "broken".
I don't know what you are trying to say here. What supposed to be broken
and why you think so?
