The machine I'm writing this comment is running with a Radeon RX550, with the open source AMDGPU drivers coming with the mainline kernel.
OS is Debian Trixie (Testing). No secret sauce. Install & go. Everything is working perfectly.
- dagw 2y agoIt's not just about drivers in isolation, but what features those drivers and cards support. Support for older APIs for doing compute on AMD cards get dropped in newer drivers and newer APIs aren't supported on older cards. With Nvidia CUDA has been supported continuously for probably 15 years now, while in the AMD world you've been expected to throw out all your old code and port it to a new API every 3 years.
