AMD Linux GPU Drivers Guidelines
AMD Linux GPU drivers are open source and integrated into a variety of popular Linux distributions. For many use cases, AMD recommends using AMD GPU Linux drivers available from Linux distributions. Some of these use cases are described below:
- Using a Linux distribution that is not compatible with Radeon Software for Linux (see Compatible 64-bit Operating Systems). For example:
- Ubuntu 24.10 (when released)
- Ubuntu 24.04 with the latest hardware enablement (HWE) kernel
- Fedora 40
- Pop!_OS
- Linux Mint 22
- Arch Linux
- 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
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 our latest products.
