How to Enable AMDGPU?

6,414

Solution 1

If your graphics card is supported you may wish to consider AMDGPU-PRO. You can find the latest 16.60 version of the driver here [link] (http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx)

Solution 2

The opensource amdgpu driver is for GCN+ class hardware only. Your GPU is a VLIW-based HD 5000 series that works with the radeon driver out of the box, and is NOT supported by the amdgpu driver.

    I didn't know that Ubuntu was using AMDGPU by default and I've installed fglrx. It's already removed now.

    I want to reactivate AMDGPU, how can I do that?

    lspci -nn | grep VGA
    

    Graphics Card

    lsmod | grep amd
    

    AMDGPU

    @George JMKõ edited his answer and fixed the broken link with an updated link to the latest version of AMDGPU-PRO (version 16.60) which is now out of beta.
