Summary: AMD GPU for Ubuntu Linux Broken
Product: DRI
Version: XOrg git
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: DRM/AMDgpu

You should put a warning label up whenever you are handing out free "break =
your
linux distro" drivers. A few months ago I tried to install the driver on 18=
.10
I had to look online to find out that it breaking the Linux install was the
intended effect. Okay, so I bought this computer with a 570 like two years =
ago
and it hasn't been properly supported this entire time. Linux gets updated =
to
4.18 on Ubuntu and my GPU isn't giving me the same error it has been for the
last entire time I had the computer, exciting. I try to install the drivers=
and
WOW it breaking is still the intended result. I notice I have Ubuntu 18.04.=
2,
the one advertised is 18.04.1 and sure enough Google tells me that the inte=
nded
effect was to break my Linux. My complaint is if you know that you're going=
to
break my computer over and over again just give me some warnings, like "hey
this doesn't work on Linux 4.18" instead of just handing it out like Malwar=
e.
This is 3 years in and I still do not have proper support for my GPU on Lin=
ux.
Sorry for being frustrated but this company has caused my anguish for no go=
od
reason. The error is DKMS failed or something after it installs but you guys
already know that it doesn't work with a fresh install of Ubuntu. I'm not
downgrading my Linux so I get the errors on startup again I have to wait for
you guys to properly support my GPU 2 years after the GPU was released. Do =
you
guys give refunds for this sort of thing I had to reinstall my operating sy=
stem
more than 6 times slowing down everything I wanted to do. When rich people =
have
their time wasted they get to sue people..
