amdgpu driver is bake in to the linux kernel but for newer card you will need to install a new driver or opencl or vulkan
amdgpu when downloaded from amd website have 2 driver version
pro driver (non open-source driver) is the one that you should avoid unless you want more performance gain (may gain more performance than the opensource driver)
amdgpu (open-source driver)is the one you need to use if you are using software in this list
- davinci resolve
- obs x window capture
- wine dxvk
- blender
AND PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NEVER MISMATCH AMDGPU-PRO DRIVER WITH MESA PLEASE
if you need to install this manually this will conflict with amdgpu or amdgpu pro driver
and for what ever reason you need the pro driver you can’t really swap between 2 of them on the fly since they all implement the same api (opencl /rocm and vulkan)
*Note pro driver may give performance in some workload (i haven’t tested this yet)
anyway to install amdgpu on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS or any derivative distro
*Note if you are having a problem with installing rocm it may help if you did a graphic purge
first download the deb file from amd website
install the deb file with dpkg
then do
amdgpu-install --usecase=graphics -y --vulkan=amdvlk --opencl=rocr --no-dkms
*Note –no-dkms flag is required for anyone running a cutting edge kernel ie 5.4 and higher
reboot
do
sudo apt update
sudo apt install rocm-opencl-dev ocl-icd-libopencl1 opencl-headers clinfo mesa-opencl-icd #for opencl*Note Do not install any dkms related package
if you require something else using amdgpu install that package with rocm-<packagename> and press tab
ie clang will be rocm-clang-ocl or pytorch ml do rocm-ml-sdk
reboot and enjoy
if you dose the step correctly
when type clinfo there should be 3 device
1 combine cpu gpu
2 gpu
3 cpu
