All of the lines already have "non-free-firmware" appended after "main". # apt install firmware-amd-graphics did work. Thanks!

That didn't help, but during boot, I caught a glimpse of "ERROR" and "radeon" and this is what my # "nano /var/log/kern.log" said

[drm] radeon kernel modesetting enabled.
[drm:radeon_pci_probe [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon kernel modesetting for R600 or later requires firmware installed
See https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware for information about missing firmware
[drm] linux how to see bootamdgpu kernel modesetting enabled.

The Wiki doesn't say why the firmware is missing but the "Firmware missing from Debian" section did point me to the right place.
Now which "/tree/amdgpu/oland_*.bin" should I install?

My system has an AMD Radeon R7 240 graphics card, amdgpu module and modules that use it are loaded, VDPAU packages are installed but "vdpauinfo" returns

display: :0.0   screen: 0
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Error creating VDPAU device: 1

and "grep -i vdpau /var/log/Xorg.0.log" returns nothing

To fix this, should I add "export VDPAU_DRIVER=radeonsi" to the ".bashrc" file?
