missing firmware amdgpu

– Please Write here your help request –
Hi, when I run parrot-upgrade or update-initramfs -u
it says the following,

update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.15.0-15parrot1-amd64

I tried to find the missing firmware from various sources but it still gives such output.
I downloaded the other firmwares from the following links:
i915 - kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git - Repository of firmware blobs for use with the Linux kernel
https://github.com/Umio-Yasuno/unofficial-amdgpu-firmware-repo/tree/master/amdgpu
and some other sources as well but it still gives the aforementioned output.
How do I fix it…?

  • ParrotOS iso in use:
    parrot 5.0

  • Application used for flashing the iso:
    balena etcher in usb.

  • Logs/Terminal output (use pastebin or similar services):

  • Screenshots:

can you run in a terminal inxi -bz and post back the results?

This is the output of inxi -bz

The driver does not work properly perhaps it’s broken, the display brightness control does not work…
brightness can’t be increased.

OK. so I am a hardware man, not a number juggler, looking at the inxi, it appears you have the correct drivers installed, Now there have been many problems with Ryzen chips across distributions and kernels,
AMD issued a bios bug fix a while back, that cured most problems, so my first thought is checking your MB maker [box builder] for a bios upgrade

Addendum. The brightness control on some Lenovo products is/was well-known, and kernel 5.14.* onwards supposedly fixed it, after checking for a Bios update, if you are still having problems, then my suggestion would be installing a newer kernel than you have, as yours may be corrupt.
