Make sure modconf is in the the HOOKS array in /etc/nf and regenerate the initramfs.Ĭompile kernel which supports amdgpu driver Options amdgpu cik_support=1 /etc/modprobe.d/nf options radeon si_support=0 etc/modprobe.d/nf options amdgpu si_support=1 MODULES=(amdgpu radeon).Ĭreate the configuration modprobe files in /etc/modprobe.d/, see modprobe.d(5) for syntax details.įor Southern Islands (SI) use option si_support=1, for Sea Islands (CIK) use option cik_support=1, e.g.: Make sure amdgpu has been set as first module in the Mkinitcpio#MODULES array, e.g. Sea Islands (CIK): radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1.Southern Islands (SI): radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1.Set one of the following kernel parameters: Set module parameters in kernel command line Tip: dmesg may indicate the correct kernel parameter to use: amdgpu 0000:01:00.0: Use radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 to override. You can use both parameters if you are unsure which kernel card you have. They need to be set as kernel parameters or in a modprobe configuration file, and depend on the cards GCN version. The module parameters of both amdgpu and radeon modules are cik_support= and si_support=. If the amdgpu driver is not in use, follow instructions in the next section. Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device 226c $ lspci -k | grep -A 3 -E "(VGA|3D)" 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. You can check which kernel driver is loaded by running lspci -k. The amdgpu kernel driver needs to be loaded before the radeon one. GCN 1) and Sea Islands (HD 8000 Series, CIK, ie. The linux package enables AMDGPU support for cards of the Southern Islands (HD 7000 Series, SI, ie. Enable Southern Islands (SI) and Sea Islands (CIK) support Tip: Users who do not wish to go through the process of compiling the mesa-git AUR package can use the mesa-git unofficial repository. This should not be required if building mesa-git AUR from the AUR.

Optionally install the lib32-vulkan-radeon-git package for 32-bit application support.

When the amdvlk package is installed, it sets itself as the default Vulkan driver: see Vulkan#Selecting via environment variable if you need to have both drivers installed (e.g.Test with only vulkan-radeon first: although not appearing as the first provider of vulkan-driver (due to its alphabetical order), it avoids some issues that have repeatedly been reported about amdvlk.For the DDX driver (which provides 2D acceleration in Xorg), install the xf86-video-amdgpu package.For 32-bit application support, also install the lib32-mesa package from the multilib repository.Install the mesa package, which provides the DRI driver for 3D acceleration. Owners of unsupported GPUs may use the open source ATI driver. AMD has no plans to support pre-GCN GPUs. This driver supports Southern Islands (SI) cards and later. AMDGPU is the open source graphics driver for AMD Radeon graphics cards from the Graphics Core Next family.ĭepending on the card you have, find the right driver in Xorg#AMD.
