From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For some reason, I can't get Lemmy's "code" fuction to work properly in this reply but both commands give the same information:

This is the smoking gun, btw.
I see you've got it working, so I'll just add a bit of explanation.
AMD GPUs used to use a driver called
radeon
. It was replaced with the currentamdgpu
driver. For a while, you had devices that were supported by both drivers and you could choose between the stableradeon
driver that was missing features like Vulkan and HDMI audio or the brand newamdgpu
driver that had the newest features but was unstable and not well tested.The kernel has a policy of not unnecessarily breaking things with kernel changes so even though
amdgpu
has been well tested in the years since, devices from that era still default to theradeon
driver and need to be forced onto theamdgpu
driver.
