amdgpu is a perfectly fine name if that's what it's called. There is a kernel driver called that as well as a modesetting driver and if you are talking about either of those things specifically then that's what its name is. But mesa isn't called that anywhere at all. Not even in one single place. And mesa is where the open source graphics stack implements its graphics API's like OpenGL and Vulkan.
We use X or W, they have Hummingbird and again who cares
Driver is patched for NT version this or that, but please driver vendor support my Hummingbird version too... no one talks like this as no one care People just says driver suite this or that and that is about it
One year they get Catalyst, then Crimson, other year they say Adrenalin... if here Linux or Mesa get renamed that is OK, i don't care again
ATi was renamed to AMD, who caresLast edited by dungeon; 24 January 2018, 03:24 AM.

DRI driver Radeonsi and RadV with a help of LLVM and also Mesa, together with entire Linux and his drivers but mainly amd driver infrastructure, all compiled with GNU is Not UNIX CC and right flags, plus minus Bugzillas, GIT and PPAs, etc... vs nvidia, sounds a lot like confusion
For ATI Technologies Inc. people says ATi, for Advanced Micro Devices Inc. people says AMD, etc... what is wrong if for Wayland i say W? X or W?Last edited by dungeon; 24 January 2018, 04:11 AM.

So what is your suggestion? amdgpu vs nvidia sounds most short and proper to me.

Just say what your talking about. If you're talking about radeonsi, say radeonsi. If what your talking about is amdgpu then say amdgpu. If what your talking about is mesa, then say mesa. It really is that simple.Last edited by dungeon; 24 January 2018, 04:45 AM.

@AMD: What is wrong with you? For a few weeks / months the prices for 560 / 570 /580 were at least almost back to its original level.
Now I'd need to pay 330 € for a 570 and 350 € for a 580? Instead of whining crypto miners buy your cards you should be happy to earn that much money! And at the same time you should make sure to deliver!
For 1,5 years I got a 480 running very nice due to the work of the devs working at Mesa and AMDGPU. In fact I wanted to buy a 7 nm GPU when the time has come. But please fix this awkward situation ASAP! The Linux AMD GPU usage will decline even if the driver stack situation is perfect if you don't react!
