Responding to Ryan’s potential issue with a Vega GPU in the latest DL, this may also be helpful for others…
If you can’t start your Linux desktop environment you might be missing microcode (ucode). freedesktop.org is a good source for FOSS Radeon ucode among other things, their collection is here: Index of /~agd5f/radeon_ucode

Installation guide:
# Go to: https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/ and note the folder name of the ucode you want.
# Boot to terminal (recovery mode), if you can't get into the DE.
# Get the latest kernel
sudo apt update && dist-upgrade
# Download the ucode (replace FOLDER_NAME with the one you want)
# wget -m -np https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/FOLDER_NAME/
# ^-- this method is now deprecated! (see: following post)
# Obtain ucode manually from here: https://web.archive.org/web/20200112165952/https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/
# Move the ucode to the right location
sudo mkdir /lib/firmware/amdgpu
sudo cp /DIR/CONTAINING/UCODE/*.bin /lib/firmware/amdgpu
# Add it to the latest kernel
sudo /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -u
sudo reboot
Removal guide:
sudo rm /lib/firmware/amdgpu
sudo /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -u
sudo reboot

These have been moved or deleted as of ~Fed, 2021. I don’t know why but they may have been merged with the Kernel, been made redundant, support may have been dropped or perhaps spring cleaning. Distros like Fedora, CentOS and RHEL pre-installed them for example.
Presently the only firmware availabe is green_sardine.
If you need these archive.org has all the contents backed up as of March, 2020 here , consider donating a few bucks if they saved your bacon.
Fedora/CentOS/RHEL users can list their freedesktop.org drivers as follows. At a guess i’d say these are usable with any other Linux distro but I have no confirmation of that. Proceed at your own risk.
