[01:11] <Luza> sup folks new guy to ubuntu studios or linux period . i cant seem to get blender 2.8 to read my radeon 580 rx .. anybody get amd to work properly ?
[01:13] <Luza> on additional drivers they dont show up either
[01:48] <tomreyn> Luza: i'm not into blender really but i think they have their own IRC channel here, try #blender
[01:48] <tomreyn> also you most likely won't need any extra drivers other than amdgpu which comes with ubuntu
[01:51] <Luza> yeah but for some reason blenders not recognizing them
[02:20] <tomreyn> if you're using the blender snap it may be restricted too much, preventing it from detecting / using the hardware.
[02:21] <tomreyn> on the other hand, it could be a bug in an older blender version which ships with ubuntu(studio), so try vice versa and maybe try one downloaded from blender, too.
[02:21] <tomreyn> *blender.org
[02:33] <tomreyn> i just downloaded blender 2.81a and on this ubuntu 18.04 system with Radeon RX 580, in blender -> edit -> preferences -> system -> cycles render devices, i also don't see it listed on any tab. i guess you could probably get opencl working with either the open source (mesa / dri) drivers or with amd's proprietary amdgpu overlay drivers.
[02:34] <tomreyn> the latter aren't supported by the volunterrs here though. i sugeest to seek some suggestions from the blender community since this is probably a more common question.

[06:23] <Luza> morning
[06:23] <Luza> hey man you willing to share screens ? and help me with my amd drivers ?
[06:24] <Kaffeeknecht> sorry, a bit short this morning...currently fighting with my notebook's filesystem...
[06:25] <Luza> oh ok no big thanks anyways
[07:13] <Eickmeyer> Kaffeeknecht: Just for reference on that, we do not allow support via screen sharing for the security of all involved.
