[SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

So I have this Radeon RX570, and am using the amdgpu driver. DVI is fine, and HDMI works during UEFI, but once it passes to Arch booting, the HDMI is disconnected, and cannot be enabled through a/xrandr. I've tried re-plugging the device, re-installing the driver, to no avail.

EDIT: Solution

I do not have a Xorg.conf, or any uncommented xrandr lines.

Here is the Xorg.log. Any assistance here would be very much appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

Are there interesting messages in "journalctl -k" or "journalctl -b"?

In your Xorg log, the driver sees absolutely nothing about the HDMI monitor. It says nothing is connected to that output.

About the text console, you can find what's seen there in /sys/class/drm/. Each output of the card has a folder there, and you can see what's connected like this:

grep . /sys/class/drm/*/status

Re: [SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

Output of grep:

/sys/class/drm/card0-DP-1/status:disconnected
/sys/class/drm/card0-DP-2/status:disconnected
/sys/class/drm/card0-DP-3/status:disconnected
/sys/class/drm/card0-DVI-D-1/status:connected
/sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/status:disconnected

As for the journal, nothing seemingly related to the graphics card.

Please post full lspci -k , dmesg and/or journalctl -b outputs.

Re: [SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

[    0.163641] Kernel command line: initrd=\initramfs-linux.img root=/dev/sda2 rw

Looks like you haven't configured Microcode updating ?


[    0.236433] smpboot: CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz (family: 0x6, model: 0x5e, stepping: 0x3)

The intel core i5-6500 does come with an integrated gpu, but lspci doesn't list one .
Did you disable it in bios / uefi firmware or do you have another processor ?


What is brand and model of your motherboard ?

No, I have not. First I'm learning about this, tbh.

Yes, it is set to exclusively use the PCIe GPU (Radeon).

What is brand and model of your motherboard ?

ASRock B85M-ITX

Re: [SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

It's mentioned clearly in installation guide since december 2018. Before that is was not hard to miss it.
While it may not be related to the current issue, all systems should use it now.
Please configure microcode updating.


The latest bios / uefi firmware for that motherboard is 2.50 from jan 20 2016, are you running that ?


Your system should have 2 hdmi connectors : one from the MB and one from the videocard.
please verify you do use the correct one.

EDIT: Microcode updated and EFISTUB configured.

Also I can assure you the HDMI connection is in the graphics card, and not the motherboard.

EDIT 2: Interesting. When I connected my TV to the HDMI out, it works flawlessly. Then connecting the Cintiq to it, it worked also, though it was rather bright, but arandr couldn't specify a resolution. Dropping out of X and back in once again renders the tablet screen "disconnected".

Re: [SOLVED] Radeon RX570 / HDMI out disconnected on Linux boot.

I guess this is a bug in the amdgpu kernel module. This wouldn't be unusual. One thing you can try is, boot with a parameter "amdgpu.dc=0" on the kernel command line. The driver will then use different code for the output to the monitors.

The bug tracker for the amdgpu kernel module is here:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cg … ate%20DESC

You might find an interesting bug report when you look around there, for example there's one here about HDMI problems:

Well, looks like that kernel parameter did the trick, thank you!
