[Bug 1003192] New: Kernel 4.4.21 of LEAP 42.2 beta2 doesn't support AMD RX480 graphics card
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1003192 Bug ID: 1003192 Summary: Kernel 4.4.21 of LEAP 42.2 beta2 doesn't support AMD RX480 graphics card Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: Michael.Born@aei.mpg.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- After installing LEAP 42.2 beta2 from an USB stick, my ASUS RX480 was not detected and KDE ran in 1024x768 resolution on my 1920x1080 display. After upgrading kernel and X11 the monitor used native resolution and MESA 3D was working. So, kernel and MESA(4.4.21 and 11.0.8) are quite old and do not support the AMD graphics cards[1] released this summer. Are there any plans to backport that AMDGPU support to 4.4.21? Or, are you recommending future LEAP 42.2 users to directly switch to the Kernel:/stable and X11:/XOrg repositories?

About Mesa I commented in this other bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
