I went digging through installed packages before reopening the bug and looks like I had disabled non-free without removing firmware-amd-graphics. Re-enabling non-free and upgrading firmware-amd-graphics fixed the problem. -- Jacob Adams GPG Key: AF6B 1C26 E2D0 A988 432B 94F4 24C0 2B85 B59F E5A9

I'm not sure if this a bug in Debian or a hardware problem so I thought I would ask about it. I'm running Debian stretch (i.e. testing) on an AMD A10-5800k with Radeon HD 7660D built-in. Early in the boot process, the screen goes black and I have to press a key to bring it back. When I do these mes
