Hello,

So I just bought a 7900 XTX and put it in my Libreboot 9020 MT motherboard (I have a custom build that I made for myself), it says during bootup of Debian:

"amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: firmware: failed to load amdgpu/gc_11_00_0_mes_2.bin (-2)"

I took out the GPU, booted into the OS without errors, and checked if the firmware-amd-graphics package was installed, which it was. I'm new to AMD, wondering if anyone else has had the same issue before.

See that the linux-firmware package is installed on your system.

Then check /lib/firmware/amdgpu/

If it's not there download it manually and place it there using sudo

Make sure chown it properly as well. I'm pretty sure it's sudo chown root:root filenamehere. Dbl check who owns the amdgpu dir, that's who should own it.

Update Initramfs - sudo update-initramfs -u

Reboot and pray.

The errors went away at boot, but nothing happens now, its just stuck. I just see the _ blinking that's it. Going to try installing Arch and see if I can get it working better.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
