I installed a Radeon WX 3100 a few days ago on my buster system. It failed to 
bring up the X server. I installed the proprietary drivers from AMD's site, but 
still no dice.  Just for fun I tried to boot the previous kernel 4.19.0-8 and 
the system worked fine.

I have install the amd-graphics-firmware from buster backports version 
20190717-2.  Also installed xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu version 
18.1.99+git20190207-1. 

I have reconfigured the kernel and ran update-initramfs.  Also purged the 
amdgpu xorg driver and reinstalled.

Any ideas on how to get the system to run X with the 4.19.0-9 kernel.
