so I have an rx 580
I want to install the drivers from amd, I don't know much about linux(they said that this distro is the best one for noobs)
anyways, I read somewhere that I can install software for ubuntu, so I decided to go here
https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-500-series/radeon-rx-500-series/radeon-rx-580
and install the Ubuntu x86 64-Bit software.
so now if I run
amdgpu-install
it gives this error : Unsupported OS: /etc/os-release ID 'zorin'
can someone that knows more than me help me?
AMD Graphics drivers should be included in the kernel, making it unecessary to install them from the AMD site.
The AMD site drivers were wrapped in a rather lazy way, looking for Big name Distros instead of referencing the os_release file to find and recognize the distro.
You can install them... by opening the file within the installer and changing the name from Ubuntu to Zorin.
But again, there is not much point in doing so, since they are included already.
If you are having trouble with your AMD Graphics, you might try:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers
sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
I need to run etherminer and it requires opengl , I don't think that the os comes with it preinstalled
Please try
sudo apt install mesa-utils
done.
when I run this command
./ethminer -G -P stratum1+tcp://myetheraddress@eth.2miners.com:2020
I get this
ethminer 0.18.0
Build: linux/release/gnu
No OpenCL platforms found
Error: No usable mining devices found
nothing changed
sorry , I confused , I meant opencl instead of opengl
How much RAM does your GPU have?
8 gb gpu ram
16 gb normal ram [not gpu]
Ok, that is no worry, then.
Have you seen this detailed guide?

Try using the 5.8 kernel:
sudo apt install linux-headers-5.8.0-63-generic linux-modules-5.8.0-63 linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-63-generic linux-image-5.8.0-63

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
