You probably need to also enable the service so it runs at boot.
E.g.:

sudo systemctl start fah.service
sudo systemctl enable fah.service

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

O.K. That seems to fail at the first hurdle. When running "sudo amdgpu-install --usecase=opencl --opencl=rocr" i get the following error message:

Code: Select all

W: GPG error: http://dl.google.com/linux/earth/deb stable InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 4EB27DB2A3B88B8B
E: The repository 'http://dl.google.com/linux/earth/deb stable InRelease' is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

I have found Man page 8 : apt-secure but it's somewhat over my head! I have tried a couple of fixes suggested on the Ubuntu-Mate.community but neither has worked.

I am learning a bit though. My introduction to Linux was about 20 years ago and although a Linux user ever since I haven't done much delving into the guts of the system.

Any help solving this would be appreciated.

Ah, fixed that one by running
wget -q -O - https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
before
sudo amdgpu-install --usecase=opencl --opencl=rocr

The AMD driver now seems to install although it lists some "Possible missing firmware". It remains to be seen if that is a problem but I must stop for the night now.

Oh dear. That's wrecked it. Can only get 640 x 480 resolution now on an "Unknown Display".

Is there a way of installing the missing firmware or should I roll back with Timeshift and try again?

Help please! I am getting the same, 640 x 480, VGA resolution only available on my Windows O.S. as well as Linux. I have also tried running a live session from my original installation disk. Timeshift back 10 days still only allows VGA. So it looks as if the firmware on the graphics card has been compromised.

That seems to be confirmed by an error message flashing up too quick to read Something like "AMD GPU checksum error"

Graphics section of system report follows:

Code: Select all

Graphics:
  Device-1: AMD vendor: Sapphire driver: amdgpu v: kernel pcie: speed: 16 GT/s lanes: 16 ports:

Does anyone have an idea for fixing this other than getting a new graphics card?
