Thank you for the suggestion.
Installing firmware-amd-graphics does at least silence the complaint during startup about the lack of firmware when the OS tries to initialize the card.
That doesn't actually fix the "problem", although having not tried Linux on this hardware before it's difficult to be certain how much of a problem it is.
I can load YouTube in Firefox and play a video, but that keeps the CPU pretty busy and the video stutters to the point of it being not practical to watch even at the auto-selected resolution of 360p. It's clear from the "about
upport" page that Firefox is not using any hardware acceleration.
