| ih8wndz | is there a howto for amdgpu-pro-17.50-511655 on 17.10.1? | 04:18 |
|---|---|---|
| kernal | what do you need to know ih8wndz? | 04:35 |
| ih8wndz | I am a gentoo user so I'm not well versed on Ubuntu. I'm setting a machine up for a friend. I found this doc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD | 04:38 |
| kernal | what gfx card does he have? | 04:39 |
| ih8wndz | r7 240 | 04:39 |
| kernal | https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx | 04:41 |
| ih8wndz | if I install that driver, which I have, x wont load | 04:43 |
| kernal | damn | 04:43 |
| kernal | gentoo build coming up?? | 04:52 |
| ih8wndz | with his machine? | 04:52 |
| kernal | yep | 04:52 |
| ih8wndz | naw, he's a windows tech/gamer miner wannabe who lives in NYC. I'm in Mississippi and don't want to support him for the rest of my life. | 04:54 |
| kernal | lol | 04:54 |
| ih8wndz | I'm actually a Funtoo user. I do think it is easier to maintain, but that's just mho | 04:55 |
| ih8wndz | Love Mate/compiz/cairo-dock | 04:55 |
