> AMD support on Linux is the biggest issue.
From my experience, it takes about a year between the time AMD hardware is generally available to the public and the time Linux support for it is rock solid.
I got one of the first 6800U laptops available and at the beginning it was rough, crashing often for no reasons. Slowly, each new kernel or firmware version fixed more and more things until one day, about a year later, all issues were gone.
- pjmlp 3y agoI bought my Asus 1215B back in 2009, naturally it had the AMD proprietary driver back then, it took until Ubuntu 22.04 LTS for me to get OpenGL 4.1 support back, now with the open source driver. It had been downgraded to OpenGL 3.3 since Ubuntu decided to drop the proprietary driver.
