 |
|
Hello! I'm trying to setup AMDGPU drivers on HP 15-ba579ur laptop. I'm following AMDGPU wiki page: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/AMDGPU. Currently I'm trying to put the right string into kernel configuration. But I can't find files for WANI GPU in /lib/firmware/amdgpu/ directory.
Here is my lspci output:

Maybe I don't understand something. I see that there is also a Topaz XT in lspci output. I think the laptop that I have has switchable graphics between integrated and discrete GPUs but I'm not sure. Can you help me? Thanks in advance. |

If the firmware files do exist they should load from userland if you configure the amdgpu driver as a module. The amdgpu wiki guide directions implying the amdgpu driver must be compiled into the kernel are not always accurate nor necessary.
I'm running a 5500XT with amdgpu configured as a kernel module and it's worked fantastic since the first day it was powered on.
There have been some scenarios where compiling the amdgpu driver and firmware into the kernel binary are and have been beneficial however in several years experiences using amdgpu those were only when opencl compute capability was desired for crypto coin mining or running folding from home as two common examples.
if your going to use it for video games or watching a movie those use case scenarios shouldn't concern you 
Try allowing the kernel to figure it out for you. if it still doesn't work or there are firmware load failure errors or warnings in dmesg file a bug report and reply here with the error message related to the amdgpu driver.

Duke Owlington,
Welcome to Gentoo.
We need the Vendor and Device IDs for your | Code: | | 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Wani [Radeon R5/R6/R7 Graphics] (rev ca) |
will tell what we need.
The Vendor is AMD, that's 1002:
As ali3nx says there are merits to both built in and modular GPU drivers.
Built in means you get an earlier console than with modular but the required firmware files do change on occasion, then things break.
Modular means that it just works ... most of the time.
Both ways need the firmware.
Poking about in startpage.com, it appears that you have a carrizo GPU, if its PCI ID is 1002:9874, so you need at least
| Code: | ls /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carr*
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_ce.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_mec2.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_pfp.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_sdma1.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_uvd.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_me.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_mec.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_rlc.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_sdma.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_vce.bin |

You were right NeddySeagoon. It's PCI ID is 1002:9874. Thank you all very much for your answers! |
