Talk:Radeon

Shouldn't the Requirements and dependencies be distro-neutral/covering most major distros? The packaging looks like Gentoo. --Morpheus (talk) 07:45, 9 December 2015 (EST)

Nevermind. --Morpheus (talk) 07:47, 9 December 2015 (EST)

I got the dependency graph using gentoo's equery depgraph function, but they're still distro neutral.

Rename article

From Radeon to Radeon (driver).

AMDGPU

Does AMDGPU deserve it's own article? I think it needs a mention at least, being the fastest free-as-in-freedom Xorg video driver and probably a solution to many issues with the Radeon driver. Keboler (talk) 16:22, 4 October 2016 (EDT)

Technically the userspace code is not free, but sure. Then we can create an umbrella article with all the drivers. — Galactus (talk) 12:15, 5 October 2016 (EDT)

Sauce? I'll do my own digging. I'm going to guess you're referring to the firmware blobs Keboler (talk) 13:57, 5 October 2016 (EDT)

The AMDGPU PRO driver! — Galactus (talk) 21:27, 5 October 2016 (EDT)

Compared to the free xf86-video-amdgpu, AMDGOY PRO makes absolutely zero difference performance wise, and only has Vulkan support to offer. Keboler (talk) 11:16, 6 October 2016 (EDT)

I'd very much like to have vulkan support though. If anything, to use mpv's upcoming vulkan vo. — Galactus (talk) 18:19, 6 October 2016 (EDT)

It's not the fastest. — Galactus (talk) 15:58, 19 December 2016 (EST)

TODO

Overhaul article to be about AMD's free driver stack (no amdgpu, for now). — Galactus (talk) 15:58, 19 December 2016 (EST)

This article is mostly deprecated now (save for shitty distros), since most options (including DRI3) are enabled at runtime. What do? — Galactus (talk) 18:18, 23 December 2016 (EST)
