[RESOLVED] Anyone got AMD RX 5700 (XT) to work?

Murray_B · 2019-10-06 06:48:27

Okay, I deinstalled the whole mesa stuff from stable and switched over to mesa-git. I installed mesa-git, xf86-video-amdgpu-git and llvm-libs-git. Without any reconfiguration X11 starts and I even could run the Unigine Superposition benchmark (with 1080p extreme settings I got a score of 3909, in Windows I got 4444) So current mesa seems buggy. I guess I go for breakfast now and wait a bit for becomming llvm and mesa stable and maybe a mesa update.

@Murray_B as you are now using the mesa-git repo could you please try building mesa 19.2 with the toolchain from mesa-git to see if mesa being built with LLVM 8 is the cause.

git clone git://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git --single-branch --branch "packages/mesa"
cd packages/trunk/
makepkg -rsi

Sorry, I am away from home this week and have no access to this computer. But mesa is already rebuilded with llvm 9 in staging, so hopefully it will become stable this week and solve every problem we have!

> Notably absent is no Navi support with ROCm 2.9. AMD has remained quite about if/when they intend to support the current Navi graphics processors with ROCm.

Feeling very much on the bleeding edge with this Radeon RX 5700 XT

Is anyone running games at all? I'm struggling to run any games currently. I wasn't able to with current stable, so I upgraded to mesa-git again, but still no dice.

loqs · 2019-10-07 19:28:19

@marmalade what kernel version? What games?
What do you mean by struggling: low frame rate, graphical artifacts, game will not start / crashes, system hangs e.t.c?

I didn't really want to deal with git packages, so I went ahead and installed amdgpu-pro from AUR a couple of weeks back. I was able to complete Wolfenstein: The Old Blood (running on Valve Proton) with no issues. I tried to switch to mesa 19.2 when it reached stable, but I experienced a hard lock during boot, so I reverted to amdgpu-pro until all problems are sorted out. I guess you can try that if you want to play games. I also tested CS:GO and Doom (on Proton, using Vulkan). They worked fine.

Murray_B · 2019-10-08 05:59:00

Concerning games: I just did a quick try with mesa-git, Euro Truck Simulator 2 (I guess opengl) ran fine, but Rise of the Tomb Raider (Vulkan) crashed. Normal 2D operations worked fine.

It's also worth it to try different graphics APIs if available. For example World of Warcraft

Works when using DX11->DXVK->Vulkan with any Vulkan implementation, but amdvlk has better performance than radv.
Locks the GPU up with the GCVM_L2_PROTECTION_FAULT_STATUS error when using DX12->Vkd3d->Vulkan with any Vulkan implementation.

I can confirm that my Radeon 5700 XT is working with packages (mesa, llvm) from [testing].

Which packages were not working and which issue were they affected by e.g. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/64000

mesa-git repo works nicely. Got a few freeze and had to restart.
Though latest kernel update is making my desktop freeze on every boot. I had to use fallback (no idea which version it is)

An issue I noticed though is the gpu temps.
GPU Temperature: 54 C
GPU Load: 0 %
MEM Load: 0 %

54°C for doing nothing is super high!
I have a custom gigabyte with 3 fans... I'm kinda surprised. Anyone else having the same?

Pse · 2019-10-11 15:48:07

Everything appears to be working normally now on both Wayland (Gnome) and Xorg using only stable packages:

linux-5.3.5-arch1-1
mesa-19.2.1-1
libglvnd-1.2.0-2

Edit: spoke too soon. Just had a lockup. Switching back to amdgpu-pro, sigh.

Which amdgpu-pro packages are you using? There seem to be several...

doragasu · 2019-10-12 08:10:40

Yesterday I upgraded my system, and now everything works with the packages in the official repos, and without using apdgpu-pro. Nice!!!

marmalade · 2019-10-14 01:26:07

It's working? I'm updated to the latest everything and it's still not working for me. I get Xorg working with Budgie and all, but I can't do anything 3D - Vulkan or OpenGL...

Murray_B · 2019-10-14 21:00:50

I installed everything from the normal repos and it is working, but quite unstable. TTY is okay (modesetting), but even X11 (amdgpu) is crashing/freezing from time to tim in 2D! I haven't played so much yet, but if I want to freeze my computer for sure, I only need to start "Rise of the Tomb Raider" which uses the Vulkan API. The game should run with even the older cards of AMD. Any ideas how to stabilize the graphics? Or do we just have to wait for the next driver versions? BTW, I own a Powercolor Radeon RX5700 Red Devil. DRI 2 is no option, the game won't start.

Ah, I forget, I have the feeling 2D is a bit more stable without composition effects.

I think this topic has moved well beyond the original request for support (now marked solved) and is now a mess of "me too" "it works now" "doesn't work for me" with some support mixed in and impossible to find.

If you have an additional request for support, please open a new thread and give details; refer back to this thread if it applies.

Closing.
