Hello Linux Mint Community, I just recently started taking my first steps into the exciting world of Linux. It has been a lot but I feel that I am generally doing well. I am a 3D artist and use Blender regularly. For this reason, I need help installing the graphics card drievrs. One on one suppport would be ideal, over DMs. If this is not a possibility I understand. Thankyou.

It comes with the kernel you just need the most recent kernel for your version of mint and preferably are on the latest version of mint available to have the best possible support

#

you may need/want rocm for accelerating some aspects of software

#

Basically ensure you are upgraded to mint 22.1 and install ROCM

#

if you have any specific trouble with either step feel free to ask in this thread

did you do the step I listed above where you installed rocm?

from GPU compute for AMD you need extra bits
