Hi,

I've just installed Deepin on my new computer and the first thing I noticed was the very poor graphics performance. The first thing I tried was to use the Graphics Driver Manager but it says that my GPU is unsupported and it may get support in the future. The next thing I tried is to download the drivers from AMD's website. But no luck with this either. It tries to install the amdgpu and the amdgpu-lib32 packagesbut according to the output; there's a dependency issue with these packages:
  1. amdgpu : Depends on: amdgpu-lib (= 19.30-855429) but it is not marked for installation
  2. amdgpu-lib32 : Depends on: amdgpu-lib (= 19.30-855429) but it is not marked for installation or
  3.                                                            amdgpu-lib-hwe (= 19.30-855429) but it is not marked for installation
  4.                Depends on: libllvm9.0-amdgpu:i386 (= 1:9.0-855429)
  5.                Depends on: libxatracker2-amdgpu:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  6.                Depends on: libegl1-amdgpu-mesa:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  7.                Depends on: libegl1-amdgpu-mesa-drivers:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  8.                Depends on: libgl1-amdgpu-mesa-glx:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  9.                Depends on: libgl1-amdgpu-mesa-dri:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  10.                Depends on: libosmesa6-amdgpu:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  11.                Depends on: mesa-amdgpu-va-drivers:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
  12.                Depends on: mesa-amdgpu-vdpau-drivers:i386 (= 1:19.2.0-855429)
Copy the Code
My computer has an AMD Radeon RX 560 GPU. Is there a way to install its driver?

AMD (open) drivers are related to the kernel version. Recent AMD hardware tends not to be compatible with older Kernel (which Deepin brings).

You can try installing a newer kernel. For example, Liquorix. As for the owner, I was never successful in installing.

Thanks. I managed to install the Liquorix kernel and now the system UI works fine. I leave gaming to Windows 10, so that's all I needed.
