Hello, I received a GPU to replace my GTX 1080. It is an RX 9060 XT pulse, when i tried to install it it didn’t work on an Ubuntu version with plasma added later. I did install kubuntu 25.04 because I thought that the issue was with the OS. Though it didn’t worked unfortunately, I tried to update the kernel to 6.15 and update mesa drivers. What is weird is that I tried multiple commands and I got it working multiple times, though it didn’t stuck, it seems like the AMD GPU drivers is not running. Does anyone have a similar issue ? I’m about to reinstall windows to check if it’s not the graphic card that is wrong but it’s me. Thank you for your time and your help, Have a nice day

    If you want help, you’re going to have to give some detail about what “not working” means.

    The RX 9000 series is very new, so it’s likely that at least one of these components in the linux distros you’ve tried was not new enough to support that GPU:

    • The amdgpu driver (part of the kernel).
    • The GPU firmware (package names vary; probably linux-firmware package on Ubuntu).
    • Mesa.

    I suggest asking other RX 90xx users what linux distro/release they have found to support such new hardware out of the box, and trying one of those. Or if you know what you’re doing, grab a tarball of new firmware and install it manually.

      I don’t know enough, DonutsRMeh say that on CachyOS it works flawlessly, i’ll give it a try. I think too it’s because of some drivers / kernel or something not new enough. Thank you for your time, i’ll keep you posted in this topic :)
