These are dynamic nodes, when the kernel module loads successfully then the directory is created. You have 5.10 kernel, right? It should come with valid modules for your ATI.

Edit: You don't have them blacklisted by accident, do you?

...and with one final strike...

Well, after following this guide on the Debian Wiki (Besides the obvious) https://wiki.debian.org/KernelModuleBlacklisting, IT WORKS!

I have no clue how or why, but it was blacklisted!

In any case, thank you.

I wish you the best.



(For any poor soul that happens upon this in the future and link is dead, here's a summary of instructions.)

1. Type "sudo modprobe --showconfig | grep blacklist" in the terminal

2. If the output includes "blacklist" and a name of your driver set (i.e. "blacklist amdgpu") that means the kernel module has been (for whatever reason) blocked.

3. Navigate to the respective directory (Mine was "/etc/modprobe.d")

4. Find the respective file where something was blacklisted and delete/modify it as necessary. (In my case, I sudo-rm'ed that bastard.)

5. The guide said to run "depmod -ae" with superuser rights (I don't know what this does, if your looking at this in the not-so-near-future, you might want to research this.

6. Run "update-initramfs -u" with superuser rights and reboot.

7. Save the world.
