IF PROBLEM HAPPEN

this package is our try to put amdgpu in ARCH, but this could break or have problems as amd update and change their packages for ubuntu

if anything happens you can always download a older tag in https://github.com/Ashark/archlinux-amdgpu-pro/releases and get the PKGBUILD there, and use makepkg with that build while we update or try to fix :)

ALWAYS USE LINUX-FIRMWARE-GIT IF LATEST DRIVER FAIL BEFORE ISSUE SOME ERROR

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-firmware-git

PKGBUILD generator is located here: https://github.com/Ashark/archlinux-amdgpu-pro

AMDGPU PRO wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMDGPU_PRO

New versions will appear here: https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu/.

@image28 I can't test now because I have video editing projects in progress... Maybe I didn't understand, are you saying that now amgpu-pro install and work (with your PKGBUILD) without the problems that prevented their use?

Updated my PKGBUILD installer to 20.40 ( still a work in progress towards simplifying package maintenance ). Currently untested will test today if I have time ( but it does build on my system ).

@mbma. Yeah installing the pro drivers system-wide isn't an option on Arch. It breaks the system.

The only thing I can tell you is that you must be missing something, because it worked fflawlessly for me.

Here's what I have in the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH folder:

dri/  libEGL.so  libEGL.so.1  libglapi.so  libglapi.so.1  libGLESv2.so  libGLESv2.so.2  libGL.so  libGL.so.1  libGL.so.1.2

dri is a directory, the rest are files from the pro packages.

And then here is what's in the dri folder, which is the LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH location:

amdgpu_dri.so

And that's it. Put all those files from the first list in folderA, then amdgpu_dri.so in folderB, then you can even test it real quick with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/folderA LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/path/to/folderB dri_driver=amdgpu /opt/resolve/bin/resolve. It should work, and then you can just turn that into a script or a little shell command or whatever you want.

@gardotd426 i've tried the suggest solution to run resolve to no avail. I also found a similar workarround on the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMDGPU_PRO#Workaround_for_using_proprietary_OpenGL

Resolve starts but then halts complaining it can't find any gpu. Any suggestions on that?

I can run resolve if i install the amdgpu-pro packages system wide, but run into other problems when booting the system.

Version 20.40 is released: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-amdgpu-unified-linux-20-40

@paulsun You can git checkout the old revision of this AUR package that builds 19.30, it should still work. Of course, even then, the libGL stuff barely works.

If I were to use 19.30 instead of 20.30 (for some reason its more stable for me, on 20.30 there are random flickers at times), do I just use extract_deb on these files?

}

So just those 9 files?

@gardotd426 - can you share the location of your .desktop file and the changes you made? I've tried a few variations on what I think it is supposed to look like but can't seem to get any changes to do anything. I'm new to editing .desktop files so I'm sure I'm missing something simple.

@Ashark I love you man, I installed the 19.30 and now everything working as it should, no more black screen, thank you
