A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Meh, nothing like having the official AMD video drivers crashing several times a day on Ubuntu with a flagship Sapphire RX 7900 XTX. And if you're extra lucky it will kick you out of the session too.
Why would you use the official ones? Mesa is better
How is ROCm these days? I remember needing the official AMD drivers for OpenCL stuff a while ago and ROCm was in very early development.
For ROCm you need the official drivers. For OpenCL, RustiCL (OpenCL implemented over Vulkan) works perfectly for me.
