If you search the archives for ryzen, amdgpu and Vega, you'll find a thread
I started in July on a very similar topic. If your HW matches what I have,
you're probably out of luck with 12, and even with CURRENT will have to
wait for the next(?) update of drm to version 5.5, I believe, to get
support for your GPU.
