AMD Vega 8 drivers issues

English Hardware
#1

So ive got an AMD Ryzen 5 mobile with Vega 8 graphics. Thing is im having issues in different apps, but mainly I think my apu isnt recognized by the drivers. I tried to follow https://en.opensuse.org/AMD but, when I run

xrandr --listproviders

i get

Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyProviders: number : 1
Provider 0: id: 0x55; cap: 0xf (Source Output, Sink Output, Source Offload, Sink Offload); crtcs: 4; outputs: 2; associated providers: 0; name: Unknown AMD Radeon GPU @ pci:0000:05:00.0
    output HDMI-A-0
    output eDP

.

Im guessing this affects programs like Radeon Profile, which doesnt show any kind of stats. I ran

sudo zypper install xf86-video-amdgpu kernel-firmware

for installing the AMDGPU drivers and all seemed up to date. Do I need to install any of the other drivers to get my gpu recognized, is this normal?

Hi
Can you install inxi and run;


inxi -SGxx

I get

evice-1: AMD Picasso vendor: Acer Incorporated ALI driver: amdgpu

Hi
If you remove the xf86-video-ati package and lock so it doesn’t install, does that help.

Still getting same result after removing xf86ati

Hi
Can you post the new inxi output?


inxi -SGxx

Have you added any amdgpu options to boot, eg andgpu.ppfeaturemask? This needs to be set for the likes of Radeon Feature, can you also post the output from;


systool -vm amdgpu

Just the “Parameters” section.

Try to update X11 and Mesa 3D.

Perform search for X11-XOrg repo:


zypper lr

If you haven’t it then add it:


sudo zypper ar https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/ X11XOrg

Then perform full repository vendor change:


sudo zypper dup --from X11XOrg --allow-vendor-change
