and scroll down to the "VGA compatible controller:" section  look for
       Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
         Kernel modules: amdgpu
It also might say radeon | radeonhd

If it says "vmmare", that is wrong and you need to fix it.

Says nothing.

check:
  /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what X.org/mesa is tying to probe.

No mesa in that file.

  is xf86-video-amdgpu installed?

Yep:

/usr/doc/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0
/usr/doc/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0/INSTALL
/usr/doc/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0/README
/usr/doc/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0/COPYING
/usr/doc/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0/ChangeLog
/var/log/packages/xf86-video-amdgpu-1.1.0-x86_64-1

Also, I think Slackware's Mesa-11.2.2 is to old for the Vega GPUs.
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/amdgpu-module-refuses-to-load-with-radeon-rx-570-card-4175648108/

I'll look at the LQ thread.

Thanks,
