Hi @asparc,

It seems that the bug has been fixed in the latest AMD GPU drivers for Ubuntu.
You can install the latest AMD GPU drivers for ubuntu using the amdgpu-install script.
For a full guide (including all install options), see: https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-overview.html

As an example, you can follow these steps:

1. Download the script using these instructions: https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-prereq.html#downloading-the-installer-package

2. Install the drivers using the below command

amdgpu-install --usecase=graphics --vulkan=amdvlk

Note that you can customise these arguments to configure proprietary driver usage. See: https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-overview.html#stack-use-cases and https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-script.html#specifying-a-vulkan-implementation for the various arguments.

When installing, if you run into an error with unmet dependencies, see the following: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1417418/unmet-dependencies-ubuntu-22-04-amdgpu-hip-support

I hope this helps!

Hi @asparc,

Thanks for reaching out!

This is actually caused by a GPU driver bug on Ubuntu. Am I correct in thinking you have an AMD GPU?
If so, I can provide a work-around for this. If it's a different make, I can investigate further.

Kind regards,

Hi Dylan,

Thanks for your answer. You are right that I'm using a AMD GPU on Ubuntu. I'd be happy to hear about a work-around!
