I'm guessing your video card is:

08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] 
Device 6995

So if you don't have the amdgpu driver installed X  defaults to using the 
default 2D VGA driver with no 3D acceleration

I assume you already checked compatibility and all of that with that driver and 
your card.

I just downloaded AMD's amdgpu-install_22.20.50205-1_all.deb and ran it through 
deb2tgz to produce the Slackware package amdgpu-install_22.20.50205-1_all.txz.

I'll learn how best to upgrade the existing amdgpu module.
