Hi. So the main hardware is as follows.
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT
*Edit* Kernel 6.8.12-amd64
I do not believe the rest of the specs matter, it just shows that I have a single discrete graphics card, and I think, the problem is to do with Debian12 not having the required firmware for the RX7800XT to work.
So I have tried this with Debian 12.1 some other version and 12.5, then the Live DVD and lastly the testing iso. I have tried multiple times with each and various installations for firmware and amdgpu packages, but I keep booting up in and nothing loads, and when I go to the TTY, there are no errors. The journalctl states that there was a fatal error with the GPU and it did not load.
Is there anyway for me to fix this. it seems what I need is gc_11_0_3* for the card, but only 0, 1, 2 and 4 are there.
I was able to between times get Arch, POP_OS, Garuda and a few other distros to work, but since had wiped the system to return to Debian my preference would be that, however, I'm getting tired banging my head against the table trying to resolve this over the past week or more, and even trying it a few months ago. So any help would be appreciated.
TL;DR
Debian refuses to load up the greeter or any GUI element due to no support for RX 7800 XT.
