Questions tagged [amd-graphics]

amd-graphics is used for question particular to the AMD range of graphic chips, graphic boards and their drivers. Use it only if you know for sure the problem is not a general graphics issue (in that case use the tag: graphics)

AMD produces processors with integrated graphic chips as well as graphics cards. Specific support for this hardware is available for Linux.

Use of this tag indicates a specific AMD related graphics problem, that is not a general graphics board issue (in that case should be used) or a generic AMD CPU issue (in that case should be used).

Several distributions include the option to install the non-open source drivers for AMD graphics chips/boards.
