    Hi

    There was an issue on Ubuntu >18.04 from a recent update that broke southern islands grafic cards running opencl.

    Before you throw your card away, fix is there and it works.

      ----------------

      I will try the patch and post the results.

      could you test with a newer mesa from this ppa  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/ubuntu/updates

      it's got latest bugfix release of the series, 19.2.8, and it's now pending as a distro update as well

        Hi,

        looks like the issue was specificly related to

        ac_rtld error: !s->is_rx

        while you get

        ac_rtld error: shdr->sh_size & 3

        Not sure if it is the same...

        you can try to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed

          Greetings!

          Thank you for your reply. I had *wished* it would apply.

          I did not know about the settings for "EnablingProposed". T H A N K Y O U  !!

          I hit a error in the setup. Perhaps you can further teach me...

          When I did an update, I get a file-not-found error:

          W: Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/bionic-proposed/restricted/binary-amd64/Packages: 404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.150 80]

          I have an AMD64 processor. I looked int the URL and did not find AMD64. It did list:

          Index of /ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial-proposed/main

          I looked in main, restricted, universe, and multiverse. No amd64.

          Am I missing something fundamental?
          Thanks again, Jay

            Hi Jay,

            I have eoan as dist. I think you have bionic, so you need to change any xenial to bionic,

            regarding the piece of software I was talking about, you can check which version is installed with

            apt policy libclc*

            If it not using the version from proposed you can use

            sudo apt install libclc*/bionic-proposed

            That would install the patched version that I tested for myself (for eaon) and that helped me.

            Cheers
