[SOLVED] Radeon GPU Video Ports are not recognized even the GPU itself gets recognized RX 7900 XT

tonhauer · 02-03-2024, 02:55 PM

Hello,
first of all i'm very sorry for my bad english and thank you very much for reading my issue. I'm pretty new to Linux so its possible, that i miss some information you need for helping me.

Issue:
A few weeks i build me a new PC on which i have a big issue with Linux and have no idea how to fix this issue.
After the moment Grub starts booting Linux i do not get any video out of my Graphics card. It doesn't matter which Linux distribution i try the issue is on all distributions i tried so far (Manjaro, Kubuntu, Arch, Debian).
On Xrandr i can see the video signals of my motherboard but not these from my GPU. The issue can't be on the Hardware itself because the video ports are working on Grub and in Windows, additional if i type neofetch in the shell it shows me my gpu.

Hardware i'm using:

OS's: Arch Linux / Windows 11 (Dual Boot)

GPU: RX 7900 XT (Sapphire Nitro+)
CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Mainboard: Asus TUF B650-Plus Wifi
Ram: G.Skill Flare X5

Both of my monitors are plugged in via DP

Things i already tried:

Using different Distributions (Manjaro, Debian, Arch, Kubuntu)
Using "nomodeset" in grub
Resetting Vmos
Repluging the GPU

Thank you in advance.

Try it with only one monitor and plug it via HDMI.

First monitor may not work via DP (same issue here with a Radeon RX 6600).

I tried but has not changed anything the last 2 messages i see on my screen are:

Loading Linux Linux ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...

after these my screen gets frozen.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D contains an IGP. Go to UEFI and completely disable this IGP.

I set Integrated Graphics to disabled, but still no changes.

Can you boot a live Linux (knoppix, grml, …) into console or GUI?

I tried the live version of Manjaro but even there I don't get any video. I didn'even had video in the shell of Arch Linux.

Are there any log files i could check for error messages?

mrmazda · 02-06-2024, 07:05 PM

The traditional log for graphics is Xorg.0.log in /var/log/. Some distros and/or DMs move it to your homedir, in ~/.local/share/xorg/. The DM may have its own log(s) in /var/log/, e.g. sddm.log or lightdm/. The journal should also have relevant logging that is available per specific unit, such as journalctl -b -2 -u lightdm to access LightDM info for the second prior boot.

Thank you so much!

in Xorg.0.log i found

Code:

but if i type lspci -k

it shows me, that the drivers are loaded

if i google about this issue above in Xorg.0.log i dont find anything helpful.

with "sudo modprobe amdgpu" i dont get any error message and with "lsmod | grep amdgpu" i get

amdgpu 13352960 58
amdxcp 12288 1 amdgpu
i2c_algo_bit 20480 1 amdgpu
drm_ttm_helper 12288 1 amdgpu

drm_buddy 20480 1 amdgpu
drm_display_helper 229376 2 amdgpu
video 77824 3 asus_wmi,amdgpu,asus_nb_wmi

another thing i tested was using amdgpu.dc=0 in the grub parameters but didn't worked.

i also tried reinstalling following packages

xf86-video-amdgpu-git
mesa-git
lib32-mesa-git
vulkan-radeon-git

in journalctl -b -2 -u sddm and in var/log/sddm.log there is no error message

This looks like an active IGP. Do you get video output from this IGP?

inxi -GSaz --vs does a nice, concise job of reporting drivers, software and hardware. Due to the nature of X, it cannot provide some graphics info unless run from within a running X session. "Drivers" manifest in multiple layers. The kernel "driver" is called a kernel module, amdgpu in your case for both your GPUs. Non-working X more often is not a failure of kernel module, but other layers, such as DRM, Mesa and/or display driver, all of which inxi tries to report status on.

With both onboard and discrete GPU in the same PC, it is often necessary to adjust BIOS settings to get graphics output from the output ports desired. Some users employ a discrete GPU for "offloading" certain video operations, not directly through its own output ports. It used to be normal that it was impossible to employ outputs from both motherboard and discrete GPU card on the same boot, an either/or situation. Some newer hardware allows both, possibly yours.

When Xorg.0.log has only one line containing (EE) (near the top), then any graphics trouble encountered is normally in the software that runs on it, not X itself. Any (EE) line after the first relates to a problem area.

Nomodeset is a troubleshooting parameter, intended to allow minimal graphics capability that enables troubleshooting within a limited graphical environment. It's use otherwise will always reduce functionality below that normally expected when all is well.

In Bios the primary video output is already set to PCIE. If i use Nomodeset i dont get any video at all, not even with the video ports on my motherboard.

with inxi -GSaz --vs it shows me

with the first one i shows me the amdgpu as alternative and on the second it shows me that there is no driver at all.
is there a way to set a driver as primary driver manually?

This is what you want.

Code:

0e:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Raphael (rev cb)
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Raphael
        Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
        Kernel modules: amdgpu

This looks like an active IGP. Do you get video output from this IGP?

Yes i get video output from the IGPU. I can't deactivate the IGPU in Bios, because if i do so, i don't get any video not even from the ports of my motherboard.

When was the Sapphire Nitro+ introduced to market? Is it possible that your installed firmware isn't new enough to include it? The latest amdgpu firmware I've seen is 20240201 in Tumbleweed. "Sapphire NITRO+ driver: N/A" in inxi suggests firmware is likely your obstacle. I would expect kernel module amdgpu to apply to both discrete and onboard GPUs.

-Gxx is a subset of -Ga. The inxi 3.3.31 version's -G I think was still a little buggy. 3.3.33 was released 2 days ago, and may better describe your configuration. If your distro doesn't disallow it, you can update it directly from upstream using its -U switch. If it doesn't work, you may need to edit /etc/inxi.conf to disable the disabler. Or just get inxi from upstream directly.
