AMD Linux GPU Drivers Guidelines

AMD Linux GPU drivers are open source and integrated into popular Linux distributions (some of them are listed at Compatible 64-bit Operating Systems). For many use cases, AMD recommends using AMD GPU Linux drivers available from Linux distributions. Some of these use cases are described below: 

  • Using AMD APU products with any popular and up-to-date Linux distribution.
  • Using AMD discrete GPU products that are well supported by a popular Linux distribution.
  • Using a notebook or desktop PC pre-loaded with Linux and/or certified by a Linux distribution vendor.
  • Using a Linux distribution that is not compatible with Radeon™ Software for Linux® such as:
    • Fedora 41
    • Pop!_OS
    • Linux Mint 22
    • Arch Linux

When using a very recent AMD discrete GPU that is not yet well supported by recent versions of Linux distributions, AMD recommends the most recent release of Radeon™ Software for Linux®. Many users find it convenient to migrate to AMD GPU Linux drivers available from Linux distributions once they've been updated to include support for the latest AMD GPU products.[RP1]
