I used the installer with the firmware included.

I had to search it for an hour and the package
that was needed is: firmware-linux-nonfree

firmware-linux-nonfree

I had a similar Problem last week.

Is that sth that can be corrected , or is
happening due to legal issues ?

But in the installer there is the option to use
non-free packages. So shouldnt that be reported
as an issue?

I reported an issue to the debian-installer
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=931436

As i found, the firmware included installers are unofficial
but since they do exist why not correct them.

Also i'm curious why i dont remember having issue with
the same GPU in my previous debian 9 install .

Also i'd like to see some hardware statistics of the debian
users.

Alexandros.

https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15491 suggests a parallel situation. Your
installation may have occurred before the rearranging of the content of free and
non-free firmware packages upstream.
