Hi

Is there a way to download the AMD Adrenalin software?

Or any other program that will allow me to edit the overclock and undervolt settings for my Vega56?

Regards and thanks.

Hi and welcome to the Forum :slight_smile:
Have a look at radeon-profile (GitHub - marazmista/radeon-profile: Application to read current clocks of ATi Radeon cards (xf86-video-ati, xf86-video-amdgpu))

I have it built, and radeon-profile-daemon;

Download from here and install manually with zypper;
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/malcolmlewis:/TESTING/openSUSE_Leap_15.1/

You just need to enable the radeon-profile-daemon service and start it. You will also need to add the amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff which should give full access not sure if the older kernel supports nng, but if you look at the modinfo output for the amdgpu module if ngg is there then add amdgpu.ngg=1 to the kernel boot options via YaST bootloader.

Hi and thanks for the reply.

I installed the Radeon profile a few hours before writing the question. However, I had no idea how to use it and a few options were grayed out. Was I doing something wrong?

I will re-download via the YAST and try again.

Regards.

i am sorry, but I don’t really know what to do with those you sent me.

Is there no 1-click install like on the openSUSE website?

regards

EDIT- i get the following error

An error occurred while initialising the software repository.

Close this application before trying again.

Hi again

Ok many thanks, I did a reboot and it has installed fine. I guess there was just something I had open that was preventing the install.

Many thanks for the tips, and thanks for the program :smiley:

Hi
To use you have to set the kernel boot options via YaST bootloader, have you done this and rebooted and checked the values are present?


cat /etc/default/grub | grep GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash=silent scsi_mod.use_blk_mq=1 amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff amdgpu.ngg=1 quiet"

The important bits are amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff amdgpu.ngg=1 present.

To check use systool they are active in the module;


 systool -vm amdgpu | egrep "ppfeaturemask | ngg"
    ngg                 = "1"
    ppfeaturemask       = "4294967295"

To check the radeon-profile-daemon is running;


systemctl status radeon-profile-daemon

● radeon-profile-daemon.service - radeon-profile daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/radeon-profile-daemon.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Sep 06 19:28:32 bert radeon-profile-daemon[1181]: Awaiting connections...

If it says dead, then run the following commands to start, check and enable;


systemctl start radeon-profile-daemon
systemctl status radeon-profile-daemon
systemctl enable radeon-profile-daemon

If all above ok, then you should be able to start radeon-profile and tweak/save profiles as required.

Hi again, Malcolm

Many thanks for your help. I believe it is working as intended. Many thanks.

I am coming from Windows and the command line is a bit confusing as of now, so thanks for the extra info regarding the process.

Regards.
