This is a simple installer for the proprietary AMDGPU-PRO Drivers for Gentoo, since there's no packaged proprietary OpenGL extensions for Gentoo (just Vulkan and OpenCL for now). Expect a ebuild soon!
This is based on the Arch's AUR port https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU_PRO for Arch Linux and it's meant to work on most GNU/Linux systems.
-
Installs AMD'S Pro Drivers extensions for OpenGL. It's meant to drastically improve OpenGL performance on AMD Graphics Cards.
-
This is meant to run on top of the open source AMD drivers and it only works when something is launched with
progl
before it, likeprogl ./RuneLite.AppImage
, so nothing is replaced on the system.
- Replaces AMDGPU driver with the proprietary ones from AMD.
Run these commands:
git clone https://github.com/Euroblitz/amdgpu-pro-gentoo.git
cd amdgpu-pro-gentoo
chmod +x installer.sh
And run the installer as root:
./installer.sh
- Extract the /usr/lib folder contents to /usr/lib (or lib32)
- Extract the /usr/lib64 folder contents to /usr/lib64
- Copy /usr/bin/progl to /usr/bin/progl and
chmod +x /usr/bin/progl
Append progl
before any command to run it with the proprietary AMD drivers.
