Description from the creator

This video will show you how to install Proprietary radeon
firmware on linux for your AMD Radeon hardware and other devices(non-AMD).

If you are unable to get the driver running from amd.com/drivers
this method should be able to get your Radeon card up and running.
Desktop parts and specifically Laptops with AMD APU's like llano, trinity,
richland and the latest kaveri should work with this installation method.

Support for devices from Broadcom/Atheros/3com/adaptec and a whole
bunch more exists in this nonfree firmware package.

The link for nonfree firmware for Arch/manjaro is:
archlinux.org/packages/core/any/linux-firmware/

Note: Driver for manjaro is installable via "mhwd-gpu" command
which is exclusive to manjaro linux only. The mhwd utility stands for
manjaro hardware detection. mhwd is an uber powerful utility and can
also be used for installing kernels with "mhwd-kernel".

The link for nonfree firmware for Debian is:
packages.debian.org/wheezy/firmware-linux-nonfr…

The link for nonfree firmware for Ubuntu is:
packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/linux-firmware-nonfree
