Do I have to install anything before doing this?
Nope. The above file is to try to call on the drivers already present in the kernel.

there is no "/xorg.conf.d" directory in my X11 folder, should I create it?
Yes, go ahead and create the folder, then the directory... Makes me wonder about the chances of this helping, now LOL
that's what I was thinking haha, maybe the in my computer that's in another directory? I have a separate partition for root, swap and home, would that maybe have something to do with it? I mean, it does have the /etc/X11/ it's just missing the xorg.conf.d/ really
What I was thinking was that you have no dedicated Intel Graphics card, actually.
Is it AMDGPU only?
OP said:
I have a Lenovo IdeaPad S145 with an AMD Ryzen 5 3500U and an RX Vega 8
I think there is no place for Intel chips.
As I understand it: AMD Ryzen 5 3500U RX Vega 8 is the full name of the GPU.
yeah, also I just finished rebooting after creating the file and it didn't work, is that why?
MB- got it. And AMD probably wont put an intel gpu on their AMD motherboard...
Well...
hmm...
I'm pretty bad when it comes to the hardware part so correct me if I'm wrong, isn't Rx Vega 8 the gpu?
It is as probable as Sun rises from the West.
It is.
And I am honestly stumped. AMD all the way around - with Limited support on Linux from AMD.
It is a graphics part of CPU.
It is integrated in CPU.

ok I'm really new to linux and stuff so... do I just run that script and it'll do everything?
alright, well I'l create a timeshift and try things out, I'm just a bit confused because it talks about some arguments regarding OpenCl and I just don't even know what that is and what I should choose
