Recently bought a RX7600XT and experienced lagging in Krita and flickering in blender since. I installed the drivers from AMD’s website, and ROCm.

I am unsure and totally overwhelmed as to what could cause these issues. ChatGPT always wants me to edit /etc/default/grub, but I am not sure why and what the bootloader has got to do with it?

These are quite a lot of questions and few information. If you need anything I am more than happy to provide any information.

    I installed the drivers from AMD’s website, and ROCm.

    What distro?

    No need to install extra shit for AMD.

    RHEL, Ubuntu and SLED are also technically the only supported distros for AMD Radeon™ Linux® Drivers / GPUPRO.

    Driver’s are baked into Kernel+Mesa.

    some distros.....

    Tho some distros lag behind on Kernel+Mesa releases…like buntu…probably need to add some PPA just to get recent versions lol.

    Consider using a container for Blender instead:

    Such as using a Fedora Distrobox:

    distrobox create --name fedora --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/fedora-distrobox:latest

    Then sudo dnf install blender rocm

    inside the box.

    You can easily export applications from your containers with BoxBuddy.

    Tinkering with drivers on a host computer makes things worse oftentimes. Mucking up containers is much easier to fix.

    Reasons why DacinchiBox uses rusticl instead of ROCm.

    You could be doing all this with just a ujust command on Bazzite. 🙃
