I am trying to install CentOS 7 on a Dell Precision 3640 and am
having some driver problems.
I had to use kmod-e1000e from ElReo enable networking on the:
00:1f.6 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet
Connection (11) I219-LM [8086:0d4c]
I still don't have graphics. When starting Gnome, it shows the graphic
screen briefly but reverts to the text login.
It has two graphics cards:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Device
[8086:9bc5] (rev 05)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Lexa XT [Radeon PRO WX 3200] [1002:6981] (rev 10)
lsmod shows i915 and amdgpu modules loaded
but Xorg.0.log says the modules amdgpu cannot be found. Is it a version issue?
Dell has a Radeon driver for RHEL 8, but not for 7.
I have no xorg.conf file.
