[SOLVED] Slackware 64 current, AMD Ryzen 3 4300 Radeon Gfx - no X11
by bennyt from LinuxQuestions.org on (#58R20)
Hi,
Attempting an infrequent hardware upgrade, X desktop is not starting. Hardware is pretty new: ASUS PN50 NUC, Ryzen 3 4300 with onboard Radeon something or other. Kernel is 5.4.59 (current huge)
In the xorg log a couple of errors:
Code:...

...lsmod is listing 'amdgpu' but no 'radeon' related modules. What am I missing? I'm guessing there is no support for the weird embedded Radeon in the Ryzen chip? A newer Kernel might help?
Any pointers?
Thanks
