I'm trying to use the integrated graphics processor on my Ryzen 7900. > $ lspci | grep -i vga > 2a:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Picasso/Raven 2 [Radeon Vega Series / Radeon Vega Mobile Series] (rev c8) When I do lspci | grep -i vga, I just get: VGA compatible controller, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc [AMD/ATI] Raphael (rev c4), (well, something very similar, I'm copying it by hand). The "Raphael", I believe, is the codename for the entire 7900 processor, not just the graphics controller. > $ dmesg | grep -i firmware > [ 0.091814] Spectre V2 : Enabling Speculation Barrier for firmware calls > [ 0.244487] ACPI: [Firmware Bug]: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored > [ 0.261256] acpi PNP0A08:00: [Firmware Info]: MMCONFIG for domain 0000 [bus 00-3f] only partially covers this bridge > [ 3.021472] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_gpu_info.bin > [ 3.045180] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_sdma.bin > [ 3.046559] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_asd.bin > [ 3.047121] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_ta.bin > [ 3.047408] Loading firmware: amdgpu/raven_dmcu.bin > [ 3.048027] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_pfp.bin > [ 3.048163] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_me.bin > [ 3.048380] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_ce.bin > [ 3.048491] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_rlc_am4.bin > [ 3.048624] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_mec.bin > [ 3.048891] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_mec2.bin > [ 3.049687] Loading firmware: amdgpu/picasso_vcn.bin > [ 3.050007] [drm] Found VCN firmware Version ENC: 1.15 DEC: 3 VEP: 0 Revision: 0 > [ 3.050015] amdgpu 0000:2a:00.0: amdgpu: Will use PSP to load VCN firmware > [ 5.407436] Loading firmware: rtl_nic/rtl8168h-2.fw As I reported in another post, dmesg | grep firmware just gives me three files, none of them to do with graphics. > $ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i firmware > CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD=y > # Firmware loader > CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="" > # end of Firmware loader > # Firmware Drivers > CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP=y > # CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE is not set > # Tegra firmware driver > # end of Tegra firmware driver > # end of Firmware Drivers > # CONFIG_DRM_LOAD_EDID_FIRMWARE is not set > # CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID is not set > # CONFIG_TEST_FIRMWARE is not set > CONFIG_GENTOO_PRINT_FIRMWARE_INFO=y Yes, I get something like that on the installation system.
