How many years ago was this? The latest AMD Adrenalin drivers are at 18.1.1. Oh and on Linux the open-source AMDGPU drivers (made by AMD themselves) are now part of the kernel since not too long ago, so any recent cards will work out of the box on a distro with a recent kernel.
- madengr 9y agoWell 18 whatever; that was released after the 12/17 release. Fuck AMD. Good riddance.
- dragontamer 9y agoAMD's driver scheme is basically year.month.something I haven't figured out the last number. But the 18.1.1 release basically means "2018 January". Similarly, their 17.7 release meant "2017 July". 5.18 seems to predate AMD's current naming scheme. So it was probably something from a long time ago...
