3 weeks ago - If you are using Xorg and are ... see AMDGPU#Tear free rendering. This bug is well known and is being discussed on bugzilla and launchpad. While the solution is not the same in all cases, this one helped some users. Add the output of this command echo rcu_nocbs=0-$(($(nproc)-1)) as a kernel parameter where the command nproc just prints your CPU's threads. For this option to be applied, you need a compiled kernel with option CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU (like linux)...

please not some wiki Then Archlinux is not for you. There's nothing wrong with not wanting to read technical wikis and manuals, but it's a MANDATORY REQUIREMENT for using Archlinux. What you want will work out of the box on Fedora and Linux Mint and others.

I created a new package base with only amf 25.10 libraries: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/amf-amdgpu-pro-25.10 · They dropped RDNA1 and RDNA2 support from 25.20+ unfortunately. Need to add a new package base for new AMF 25.20+ also... I want to say that, from what I can gather, this driver is still useful for graphics programmers. At least the Radeon GPU Analyzer (RGA) [2] tool only supports amdgpu-pro on Linux [1]. It might be worth maintaining it a little longer if anybody feels like it.
