I finally pulled the plug and got some nice upgrades for my Linux machine. I have, however, had issues getting the 7900 XTX working. What I’ve done so far:
- Changed kernel to 6.1
- Installed Mesa 22.3.1 (and additional packages, like vulkan_radeon etc)
- Installed linux-firmware-git. Also tried manually downloading / copying the latest amdgpu firmware from the repo, just in case (no difference)
- Rebuilt initramfs
- Made sure I don’t have any other boot params that might interfere
- Pulled my hair
The GPU is recognised as a “VGA Compatible Adapter”, so I do get an image / desktop, but it is ofc horribly slow as there is no gpu acceleration.
Can’t say that I’m very good at figuring out these things, so I would appreciate some help of what’s needed. This is the amdgpu-related stuff from dmesg:
