Could one of you (perhaps Juerg Haefliger (@juergh) ) provide instructions/pointers for us users on how to get AMD GPU acceleration +/- ROCm facilities working with fully patched 24.04, please?
I upgraded to Noble from Jammy, found poor graphics performance, spotted software rendering, found instructions for adding AMD GPU support and promptly ran into this bug. I'm a Unity gamedev trying to use Ubuntu as my main box, I've also tinkered with running ML locally. I can understand the "it's their problem" scenario above but until resolved, what's the recommended path forwards for users, please? Also thanks to all involved in trying to get the whole thing sorted! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2080823 Title: 6.8.0-44 breaks amdgpu-dkms 6.8.5 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Ubuntu 24.04.1 6.8.0-44 causes compile failure of amdgpu-dkms (6.8.5 from AMD partner) ``` linux-image-generic 6.8.0-44.44 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image amdgpu-dkms 1:6.8.5.60200-2009582.24.04 amdgpu driver in DKMS format. noble/main amdgpu-dkms-firmware 1:6.8.5.60200-2009582.24.04 firmware blobs used by amdgpu driver in DKMS format noble/main ``` The 6.8.0-44 kernel includes : * Noble update: upstream stable patchset 2024-07-25 (LP: #2074091) - drm/mst: Fix NULL pointer dereference at drm_dp_add_payload_part2 <---- This is the one This one causes a compile failure in amdgpu-dkms 6.8.5 , detected from rocm6.2 users and initially reported there, but i believe it should be fixed in Ubuntu who backported the fix causing the bug. https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/issues/3701 https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/issues/3701#issuecomment-2351247361 contains a trivial patch on the amdgpu-dkms side, but the problem is introduced by a patch on the kernel ubuntu-6.8. this is very annoying, and proposed workaround on github Amd Rocm are a bit weird (even if they work well) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2080823/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
