I suppose this is a common problem with AMD GPUs. I had more success
on my old AMD GPU after changing /etc/config.scm to use
(service slim-service-type)
(remove (lambda (service)
(eq? (service-kind service) gdm-service-type))
%desktop-services)
or similar and then reconfiguring, see `info guix`, section on
slim-service-type.
In order to edit /etc/config.scm using the virtual console, you may
need to when booting in GRUB press e and add modprobe.blacklist=radeon
or modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu to GRUB’s linux line.
