These files are present in your system when you package installed.
Their presence doesn't mean that they will get loaded.
I can see in your inxi:
$ inxi -G
Graphics: Device-1: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] Picasso driver: N/A
Display: server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded: ati,vesa
unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,radeon resolution: 1440x876~1Hz
OpenGL: renderer: N/A v: N/A
You have no driver loaded, because you added nomodeset to boot
parameters. nomodeset instructs Linux kernel to not load video drivers.
You have installed non-free drivers (firmware-amd-graphics) and told
kernel not to load them.
Try without nomodeset and report back.
I may have missed your reply if you already did, please try to reply
with one post, not several consecutive posts, to keep discussion more
organized.
Thanks! That was it. I don't know why it never loaded amdgpu; which
forced me to add nomodeset.
