Amd 16.04 low graphics mode

I have been trying for the past few days to install 'amdgpu-pro' on my PC but I keep getting missing firmware warnings and when I reboot my PC is running in low graphics mode.


I have a Radeon rx480. I have already tried looking on many different websites for a solution but many don't work or I don't understand.


I have done the normal cd then the folder, the I did


./amdgpu-pro-install -y.

I got this missing firmware error:


W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_01.bin for module i915
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_guc_ver9_14.bin for module i915
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/bxt_guc_ver8_7.bin for module i915
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.23-0ubuntu5) ...

Then when I reboot I get told I'm running in low graphics mode


kernel 4.8.0-36-generic


I have just uninstalled the driver so i can reboot my pc for tomorrow but I cannot find a solution.
Thanks
I am a student so i might be at school so i cant reply
