** Description changed:

  I am experiencing a reproducible display failure on Ubuntu 24.04 with an
  AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT.
  
  I was able to isolate the problem to the linux-firmware package update
- from 0ubuntu2.27 to 0ubuntu2.29.
+ from 0ubuntu2.27 to 0ubuntu2.29. I had to restore from a complete system
+ snapshot taken before the problem occurred to get a working PC again.
  
  Hardware
  CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
  GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT (Navi 21 / Sienna Cichlid)
  GPU PCI ID: 1002:73bf
  GPU subsystem: ASUS 1043:04fa
  Kernel driver: amdgpu
  Kernel: 7.0.0-28-generic
  
- I restored a complete system snapshot taken before the problem occurred.
  
  With linux-firmware 20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.27 and kernel
  7.0.0-28-generic the system boots and the graphical desktop works
  normally.
  
- 
  From the known-working snapshot, I installed only the linux-firmware
  update:
  
  20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.27
-         ↓
+         ↓
  20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.29
  
  I did not update the kernel or other graphics packages.
  
  After rebooting, the graphical display failed.
  
  The failure occurs around the transition into the graphical user
  session. In previous occurrences I could reach the Ubuntu login screen,
  enter my password, and then the display would become corrupted/black. On
  one occurrence the desktop appeared partially, with approximately half
  of the screen black, before freezing.
  
  After installing linux-firmware 0ubuntu2.29, the failure was reproduced
  again: the display became half grey/half black, followed by the monitor
  losing signal and entering standby. The machine then requires a hard
  reset because I cannot obtain a usable graphical display or console.
  
- 
  The 0ubuntu2.29 update contains a large number of AMDGPU firmware
  changes, including DMCUB/display-related firmware updates.
  
  Issue with a change in the update?
  
  Going to restore a second time now....
