It looks like you have some old repos? The actual amdgpu drivers are part of the Linux kernel.

Do you have any packages installed from those repos? You should probably just remove or replace them.

I just downloaded the newest one from amd.

Btw gpu works, I just have no audio over hdmi. I removed the Radeon VEGA 56 as it seems not to be supported in linux anymore :frowning: So intgrated graphics (with working sound) it is.,

You don’t need to download anything from AMD, even for the newest GPUs.

Everything you need is in the kernel and the mesa stack.

Vega 56 is definitely still working in Linux. Even much older cards than that are still fine in Linux.

It did work. For a weekend which was good on my multimedia pc. but than stopped working. The sound sink no longer listed in settings / sound. Only the IGFX

That is probably some configuration or driver issue. I would start by removing whatever drivers you installed from AMD.

it almost looks like they never installed.
