    I personally have major issues with Mesa 18.2 and the new 4.18-rc kernels. Independent issues, both just all the new stuff is giving me problems on my RX 480.

    Finding my sweet spot to be Mesa 18.1.3 and the latest Linux 4.17.7 at the moment. Vulkan, OpenCL, everything working great. No reason to upgrade, right? Either way, this is teaching me great discipline and patience to leave all well alone.

      Do you have bug reports for those issues?

        Asking the right question. I haven't yet, but I will soon. It is my duty.

          I own a RX480 as well, so it would be nice to know at least what your issues are. I use Mesa-git with Linux 4.17 and it works mostly well. Just experienced random crashes again on the last week's, what I didn't see before and xorg 1.20 has done issues with full screen Vulkan Apps on Plasma Wayland.

            I couldn't even get the system to boot to desktop on either setup. A quick change from 4.18 -> 4.17 and 18.2 -> 18.1.3 worked in both scenarios. So I'm not sure what was particularly unique for my setup. Running Ubuntu 18.04 GNOME
