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

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

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

@kode54 No one has pushed anything out, hence why this package is out of date, and even if they had, they would have no responsibility at all to you.

For the record, AMF video encoding works for me with the PKGBUILD I posted, but installing the libgl packages broke GDM.

Verified the the 20.10.1048557 does not have working libGL or ORCA OpenCL on my RX 480. Does anyone even test these things before attempting to push them out?

Here's and updated PKGBUILD (modified from @neatherm's one) for the released (not preview) 20.10 version: https://gist.github.com/hedgepigdaniel/193076ee30bb89edcf8650314ba33699

Yeah, I'm gonna call crap on the 20.10 EPB. Any attempt to use Blender to render using it, and my whole GPU locks up the PCIe bus. If I don't quickly switch to a TTY to kill Blender, my desktop will just lock up, period.

The 19.50 Orca driver works fine on my RX 480, though.

How many of the packages have you installed? I only installed:

amdgpu-core-meta
amdgpu-pro-core-meta
amdgpu-pro-libgl
lib32-amdgpu-pro-libgl
opencl-amdgpu-pro-orca
vulkan-amdgpu-pro
lib32-vulkan-amdgpu-pro

Using an RX 480. I’ve also kind of stopped using Linux for now, since within 20 minutes of booting I now get a pcie bus error with my gpu and kernel panic.

@kode54: Really? I'm also using gdm without any problems.

@naetherm I still can't make the libgl packages work with gdm, logging out of my desktop after installing them results in gdm crashing itself. The Vulkan drivers work, as do the Orca OpenCL drivers.

In the last days AMD released an early preview of 20.10 drivers, available here: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-lin-20-10-early-preview

I've updated the PKGBUILD of this package. Installation is working fine for me. Available here: https://gist.github.com/naetherm/7a66839dc5b9a834c68b4d2e55fb8c23

But be careful when trying: Maybe I've missed something or have overlooked something.

Naetherm's PKGBUILD needed a bit of modification. Also, in my personal setup, I've removed the PKG_EXT override, since zstd compression has very little overhead on the process compared to the old default of xz.

I still can't make my desktop manager work or desktop log in with the libGL packages installed, so I've just decided to not bother with those for now.

In Ashark's PKGBUILD I noticed that the /19.50/ directory is missing in the source path. Could this be what is compromising the installation? Naetherm's PKGBUILD has it. Another difference is: backup=(etc/amd/amdapfxx.blb) Which in Naetherm is: backup=(etc/gbm/gbm.conf) Why the difference?
