AMDGPU and Sea Islands on Tumbleweed.

Good day, i have a laptop with Ivy and Hainan on Tumbleweed. inxi -Fzx shows only “ati,modesetting,radeon”, there is no “AMDGPU” - wile all packages are installed and finally “vkcube” doesn’t work. I tried to start with “radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1” kernel options but then i lose “radeon” as well, the cooler spins like crazy and the OS becomes slow.

Hi and welcome to the Forum :slight_smile:
Can you post the output from the command;


/sbin/lspci -nnk | egrep -A3 "VGA|Display|3D"

The radeon package may not be blacklisted, hence it’s using that, output above will show if both are usable or not…

As for vkcube, my tests show it’s broken on my test machine, if I build from the sdk it’s running fine.

mars@192:~> /sbin/lspci -nnk | egrep -A3 “VGA|Display|3D”
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller [8086:0166] (rev 09)
DeviceName: Intel(R) Graphics 4000

Kernel driver in use: i915

01:00.0 Display controller [0380]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun XT [Radeon HD 8670A/8670M/8690M / R5 M330 / M430 / R7 M520] [1002:6660]
DeviceName: Radeon HD 8670M
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:1972]
Kernel driver in use: radeon

Also i cannot blacklist “radeon” because that kills my DGPU, plus “vkcube” works fine on another desktop machine i have and with equivalent GPU scores 1000.

Hi
Ahh dual graphics :wink:

Can you confirm that the libdrm_amdgpu1 and xf86-video-amdgpu packages are present? If they aren’t, install those.

You should then be able to add your kernel boot options and reboot, hopefully at that point the amdgpu kernel module should appear along side radeon in the above output.

Then, blacklist radeon via a /etc/modprobe.d/50-radeon.conf file. Once that’s done, run the command mkinitrd just to be sure changes are in effect… reboot and see how it goes.

radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1 kernel options, activates amdgpu and after a critical amdgpu ip init error during boot, the dgpu is off and the fan spins like crazy. On fedora even after amdgpu errors i was still able to start vulkan. blacklist radeon have the same result. All packages needed both x86 and x64 are installed by default.

Hi
Sounds like bug report time… do you have a ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log for the amdgpu run?

I would also attach the output from;


dmidecode
journalctl -b --no-pager

I would attach a radeon xorg log and bootlog as well as both for the amdgpu.
