Hi,

I haven't posted for a long time!

I just successfully did my first UEFI installation.

It's a new AMD machine with.  X is failing to start.  I have solved a 
number of related problems within online information including finding 
the firmware-amd-graphics package.  I can't easily post log contents 
from that machine since it doesn't have email installed yet.

I am now at:

open /dev/dri/card0: no such file...

What I find online refers to the firmware problems I think I have solved.

TIA for any ideas,

Paul

Upgrading to testing fixed X.

Answered from my new machine.

In case anyone refers to this "thread" I should add that I didn't do a 
full update to Bullseye yet.  I just updated a few packages *including* 
the kernel.  I'm guessing it was rhe kernel that solved the problem.

Upgrading the rest of the testing packages killed X again.

Upgrading to the sid kernel fixed it again

Paul,

I tried for weeks to solve this problem with my new AMD Ryzen 5 3400G.
As I did not want to play around with "testing" etc. I lastly solved the 
problem by buying a Nvidia graphic card: installed in my machine, 
reinstalled Debian 10 (the fourth or fifth time), and after installing 
the required firmware via synaptic I don not any graphic problem anymore.
