Hi David, upstream kernels currently have only headless support. We're still working on getting our display driver accepted upstream but in the meantime you can compile it yourself from https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/?h=amd-staging-4.12. With this you should have no issues booting to desktop with whatever displays you got. As for the rest of our driver Alex can probably give you a better picture but I imagine pretty much everything should be working on Vega on that tree.
