Asus Rog Strix G15 no detect GPU Radeon RX 6800m

I installed Arch Linux on a laptop, but it does not detect the Radeon RX 6800m GPU. I send the console outputs after the review

Re: Asus Rog Strix G15 no detect GPU Radeon RX 6800m

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo -B for example on mesa, not sure what the pro equivalent is, I've seen progl or so thrown around?

This isn't a problem of packages, but the way this normally works is that the smaller GPU does the normal desktop lifting and you can add the befier GPU on demand for demanding tasks via the mentioned environment variable, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME# … rs_-_PRIME

Might also be too new for the kernel, but at least the inxi dump shows amdgpu should be loaded.
