Problem marked as solved at https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...4/#post6170211
Alien you think you is only one at community ?
And the problem remained as it was. And the problem spawned a bunch of branches in this public.
Just because you thought I only wrote about Ubuntu. And we were talking about drivers in general.
Judging by the situation, it will remain so for a long time.

Извинения приняты. :-)
Да, так оно и есть, у нас очень развитый город, и везде есть по 200мб/сек, но мы живем в старинном доме,
мы семья инженеров, уже теперь в пятом поколении, потомки первых переселенцев Дальнего Востока.
Но у нас дос сих под модемный интернет.

Какое этоимеет отношение к драйверам от AMD ?
- Самое непосредственное - большинству жителей планеты их нужно СКАЧИВАТЬ !
Драйверы ядра Linux скачивать дополнительно не нужно.
У меня сейчас установлена самая новейшая операционная система, о которой можно только подумать.

Apologies are accepted. :-)
Yes, that's the way it is, we have a very developed city, and everywhere there is 200mb / sec, but we live in an old house,
we are a family of engineers, now in the fifth generation, descendants of the first settlers of the Far East.
But we still have a dial-up Internet connection.

What does this have to do with AMD drivers?
- The most direct - most of the inhabitants of the planet need to DOWNLOAD them!
You do not need to download additional Linux kernel drivers.
I now have the latest operating system you can dream of.

The forum rules require posts to be in English. Alien is not in charge of the forum, he simply participates in it like we all do. He was simply pointing out the rules in case you weren't aware. Following the rules will prevent you from getting in trouble with the moderators. If you want to converse in Russian, then you would need to find somewhere else to do it as it isn't allowed on the LinuxQuestions forum.

As for your other thread, it started off as help for Slackware, but quickly worked into you trying to get things working on other distros and eventually just on Ubuntu. It has now been moved to the Ubuntu forum, probably because a moderator felt it better fit there than in the Slackware forum.

I already mentioned this in my previous post, but your GPU is NOT supported with the amdgpu driver. The binary Catalyst driver you tried in your other thread has long been EOL and doesn't work with modern OSes. Your only option is to run an extremely old version of Xorg (1.17 or earlier) that the binary Catalyst driver supports (which would require Slackware 14.1 or earlier) or stick with the open source radeon driver, which is well supported.

Now, can you please stop derailing threads?

If you read what I wrote, you'd realize that I noticed it started with Slackware, but eventually ended with Ubuntu. And I didn't make the call (or suggestion) to move it to the Ubuntu forums. The decision was made by moderators.

This is the Slackware forum. General discussion belongs in the General subforum. As soon as your thread stopped being about the AMD drivers on Slackware, it no longer belonged in the Slackware forum.

Please ensure you read and understand the Forum Rules. Not following these rules can get you banned by the LQ admin team. They aren't very forgiving on consistent rule breakers.

I tend to disagree, there are so many threads that go off topic and never moved. Lets not make this a double standard or a micromanage debacle. Right is right and wrong is wrong, these day people only want to accept what's beneficial to them or whatever....

I didn't suggest that it should be moved, just speculated on the reasons why it was moved. I rarely report threads and I didn't report that one.

Threads do occasionally go off topic in the Slackware forum, but generally they don't start talking about getting something working on another distro.
