*ERROR* Unable to locate a BIOS ROM


Hi, recently update a debian 7 to debian 8. The problem appears when starting the server that throws an error: - [drm: radeon_get_bios] * ERROR * Unable to locate a BIOS ROM

This provokes that I can not see the graphical interface, but I can connect via SSH.
The server model is proliant dl320 g4

uname -a -->
Linux Server 3.16.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1+deb8u2 (2017-03-07) i686 GNU/Linux

Thank you very much!

Can you physically change the video card to one that is compatible with the new version?

No, that is not possible

Can not be solved by software?


Thanks!

SOLVED



on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-device.conf:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "radeon"
BusID "PCI:1:3:0"
EndSection
