Miles8of9 | if you install focal fossa and it doesn't crash, can you follow development by downloading updates using apt or it's better to reformat and reinstall each time? | 22:28 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: Never had an issue with continued updates to final release. | 22:29 |
Miles8of9 | are you using focal fossa? how it's running? any problem? | 22:53 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: I have ubuntu 20.04 in my test bed - no issues at all. My daily is 18.04. | 23:02 |
Miles8of9 | which kernel is 20.04 using at moment? | 23:02 |
Bashing-om | !info linux-image-generic focal | 23:03 |
ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta-5.4): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 5.4.0.12.15 (focal), package size 2 kB, installed size 16 kB | 23:03 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: See too: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-20.04-Linux-5.4-Likely | 23:04 |
Miles8of9 | ok thankyou | 23:05 |

Miles8of9 | i need support for radeon rx 5600 xt.. probably i'll need to update kernel to 5.5... and various libs | 23:06 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: ^^ 5.6 kernel :) | 23:06 |
Miles8of9 | maybe.... | 23:06 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: I saw that AMD has released updated dtivers for that card. | 23:07 |
Bashing-om | drivers* | 23:07 |
Miles8of9 | no drivers for 5600 at moment.. https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/amd-radeon-5600-series/amd-radeon-rx-5600-series/amd-radeon-rx-5600-xt | 23:09 |
oerheks | check out bios update? https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=RX-5600-XT-New-SMC-Micro | 23:10 |
Bashing-om | Miles8of9: ^^ also : https://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=RX-5600-XT-New-SMC-Micro >> " with that updated performance BIOS will now be working out correctly." | 23:13 |
Miles8of9 | can linux flash the bios of a video card...? i thought it was a windows-only feature | 23:15 |
oerheks | i would check the vendor website | 23:18 |
oerheks | there is fwupdate, not sure it covers your GPU too | 23:19 |
Miles8of9 | looks like a dangerous procedure... perhaps better install windows for a day and perform update from there | 23:20 |
oerheks | sure, one does not need to register the copy, to perform updates. | 23:27 |
