I have a laptop equipped with an AMD RYZEN 5 3500U processor. My goal is to correctly install the necessary drivers and OpenGL to enable the use of Davinci Resolve. Despite following the instructions on the Debian Wiki (https://wiki.debian.org/AtiHowTo), Davinci Resolve remains inoperative. I am using Deepin 20. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Other question is, when I follow the wiki, have an conflit to install the firmware-amd-graphics because already have the firmware-linux.

Thanks.

The correct way is doing nothing, really...

AMD graphics drivers are open-source since many years ago and because of that included in the kernel and immediatelly available. There's no need to install the proprietary overlay - amdgpu-pro - unless in very specific scenarios/usages, mostly crypto and stuff. AFAIK, not needed for DaVinci Resolve.
