Guest repliedOriginally posted by debianxfce View Post"But still a disappointment for this launch of a Polaris refresh card being botched for Linux users and not even knowing about the Linux driver state until buying a retail card."
But latest and old intel and nvidia graphics works fine always
Who pays the piper calls the tune.

The workaround works with my XFX card. Thanks to Nate for the discovery and sharing of this.

Sapphire Nitro r7 370 worked fine on FGLRX, but failed with radeon dpm with default clocks... and now another nitros, even that fatgirl
Whats the culprit?Last edited by dungeon; 29 November 2018, 02:24 PM.

Whatever that have different pci id, is considered different.
As this card model is OC a bit more than referent RX 590 clocks, maybe it would help if Michael could patch kernel driver to force card to start at referent clocks
It is not first time that driver need temporal quirks like thatLast edited by dungeon; 29 November 2018, 01:00 PM.

Various RX590 comes on a cards differently setuped and clocked than referent RX 590 one, and that is an issue here it seems
Stable VS Unstable Linux experience difference, could be even cos of one letter typo somewhere
Polaris 30 has same transistorcount and the same die size only the structure was changed 14LPP -> 12LP compared to Polaris 20.
Yes it is new, but it is a "refresh" not entirely new.
So I would have expected less issues - since it is not a complete new plattform.

How can it make such difficulties to provide stable Linux experiance? Whats the culprit?Last edited by dungeon; 29 November 2018, 11:38 AM.
