amd drivers issues

Very good to everyone, I hope they are well, you excuse me for my bad english

I am new to the world of linux and after some problems, I decided to switch to linux, more precisely Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, I have an amd graphics card and an amd processor

I downloaded the drivers from the official amd page and when trying to install the drivers it gives me a problem, and apparently it does not install correctly, and I think that for two reasons, the first is because when trying to put the resolution of the screen to the maximum, the screen goes black and I have to wait a few seconds for the resolution to return to the previous one selected

The second reason is because I have seen in a forum that when you install the drivers correctly, you also install a program like radeon software as in windows, which did not happen to me

I have seen a couple of YouTube videos and I see that in the terminal he writes me something different than the ones I saw on YouTube I attach a photo for you to see and I also write them in case some reason does not load the photo:enter image description here

EFI variables are not supported on this system /sys/firmware/efi/efivars not found, aborting. 
Done.

after this install some things from amd.ko and then this comes out which is also different as I explained:

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/yellow_carp_gpu_info.bin for module amdgpu

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/vangogh_gpu_info.bin for module amdgpu

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/navi10_mes.bin for module amdgpu

STEPS THAT I FOLLOWED FOR THE INSTALLATION:

  1. open terminal and type: cd ~/Descargas
  2. I wrote this code that I understand that unzips the downloaded file: tar -Jxvf amdgpu-pro-21.30-1290604-ubuntu-20.04.tar.xz
  3. enter the unzipped archive using: cd ~/Descargas/amdgpu-pro-21.30-1290604-ubuntu-20.04
  4. install using: ./amdgpu-pro-install -y --opencl=rocr,legacy (I also tried using only amdgpu-pro-install and the problem persists)

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL WHO WANT TO HELP ME <3

Why do you believe you need to manually install any additional drivers after installation? Are you experiencing problems immediately after installation, or is this just something that you thought you needed to do?

Currently AMD Graphics drivers are open-source, automatically selected and installed, **no user action required**. What you did will only make it worse. So, my suggestion is to (1) STOP - you don't know what you're doing and old Youtube videos won't help and (2) **post a question about your actual problem**, not about what you think is a solution, and **include all the basic information like hardware specifications**.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
