I don't know if I need to do that because Vulkan seems to be working now but is that correct? My sources.list file is empty and it states the wrong version of Linux mint. Should I actually edit "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list", seeing that that has the actual list of repositories?
Yeah it seems like it's working now.
Ok, it seems to have worked as the game I was using for testing seems to be working fine.
Although, I keep getting the error message (WARNING: radv is not a conformant Vulkan implementation, testing use only.)
, is that to be expected?
Ok, do I need to restart my computer now?
For some reason, I can't get Lemmy's "code" fuction to work properly in this reply but both commands give the same information:

Did I do it correctly? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1"
After saving, is there anything else I have to do it get it to work?
This is what I get when I try to run that set of commands:

My computer has an AMD Radeon R2 Graphics. It seems like both the radeon and the amdgpu modules are installed but the kernel driver in use is radeon. I'd show the output of "vulkaninfo" but it doesn't seem to show the full thing, is there a way I can get it to show the full output?
The GPU is an AMD Radeon R2 Graphics. It was a bit hard for me to find and I have no idea if it's accurate but it should support at least Vulkan 1.2.170.
Ok, what is my solution then? Right now, the only thing I know is that when ever I try to run anything in Linux that requires Vulkan, it defaults to Lavapipe instead of using my GPU and if I try to disable Lavapipe, it acts like Vulkan isn't installed.
I would but I'm actually using Linux Mint because the Xfce edition has low ram usage. My computer's ram is very slow and it's only 4GB.
Yes but the problem for me was more complicated. Mesa is installed by default in Linux Mint and Vulkan should have worked out of the box but for some reason it defaulted to the wrong Kernel driver for the GPU. I didn't know this before posting and, as I stated in other replies, every search result on every search engine told me the wrong information.
