I haven't been able to get the amdgpu driver to work on my Kabini GPU with 4.16 or 4.17 kernels.
I'm familiar with the boot parameters mentioned in Stevo's askubuntu link
(radeon.si_support=*, radeon.cik_support=*, amdgpu.si_support=*, amdgpu.cik_support=*), and they used to work okay for me with 4.13, 4.14 & 4.15 kernels but so far not 4.16 or 4.17.
A /etc/modprode.d file like the one shown below
(I called it 'amdgpu_si_cik.conf') also used to work for me with 4.13, 4.14 & 4.15 kernels.
Code: Select all
