the VGA output works on the old RadeonSI kernel driver and does not work on the AMDGPU kernel driver...
and no one want to fix the VGA output on the AMDGPU kernel driver.
and because people sit in front of the computer with black-screen in case of VGA conection is used if the AMDGPU kernel driver is used because of this they do not want to switch to the AMDGPU kernel driver.
they say if you want RADV to work for vulkan you can discover the GRUB2 command to start with AMDGPU and then you get black screen and you can google that in combination of your GCN1 hardware and then maybe you get the idea from google that you need to use DVI/HDMI instead of VGA and if you want VGA you can use a HDMI to VGA adapter.
honestly VGA monitors become more and more rare so in my point of view it is not a good advice to keep the old kernel driver for that reason.
