Have you got the appropriate microcode or whatever it is loaded into the |
| 11 |
kernel or modules? |

I had a similar issue where X/wayland wouldn't load with "Can't find |
| 14 |
video card" or somesuch, and the card wasn't being initialised by the |
| 15 |
kernel, because I hadn't installed the relevant "proprietary firmware". |
| 16 |
So the card didn't work. |

(I've got some fun coming in the future, I want to share kernels across |
| 19 |
my machines, one is a Ryzen, the other that A-class thingy with GPU, and |
| 20 |
it appears it requires a little magic to make both work on the same |
| 21 |
kernel ...) |
