A New Ubuntu Kernel Build With The Very Latest AMDGPU DC Patches For 4.15

Copy to /lib/firmware/amdgpu these files: https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5..._ucode/vega10/

That did the trick along with running update-initramfs. Thanks!

Something's not working with Vega FE. Anyone have an idea why it's failing?

HDMI/DP audio with newer Radeon GPUs

Yea, not really, because when I tried this morning it was still just working for 48khz content with my Fury connected to an MG279Q through display port. Whenever I try to play any content which isn't 48khz, which is basically all music, and some games, I get only silence.

Guess I could work around it by forcing pulseaudio or alsa to resample everything to 48khz, but I hope I won't have to resort to such workarounds once this has been mainlined.

here is a fresh Ubutu/Debian x86_64 kernel build.

Phoronix: A New Ubuntu Kernel Build With The Very Latest AMDGPU DC Patches For 4.15

This week the latest AMDGPU DC patches were queued up ahead of Linux 4.15. As covered in that article, those several dozen patches mostly further clean-up this major AMDGPU display code rework and trim it up by a few thousand lines of code. For those wishing to test out this new display stack, here is a fresh Ubutu/Debian x86_64 kernel build...
