well, today i (partially) realized why my basic drivers don’t work: the preinstalled packages amdgpu and amdgpu-dkms seem to not work due to amdgpu-dkms being unconfigured. tried configuring it and got the same error. around about there my system stopped using even the iGPU and i had to uninstall some other drivers (thanks @[email protected] )
I dealt with this at work recently with an HP laptop…lots of trial and error. It was honestly a miracle that ssh had been setup before updating but otherwise never would have been able to keep picking at it. Gave up eventually but that sucked.
