Hi guys! Brand new PC…And I’m trying to install its brand new 7800XT. I’ve chosen KDE Neon, as it was my previous OS, and I’ve grown to like it. I’d like to stick with it if possible…I’m writing this preamble, because when I try to run amdgpu-install from the AMD downloads page, all I get is:

Unsupported OS: /etc/os-release ID 'neon'

So…what can I do? Neon is mostly Ubuntu 22.04 to most effects. Kernel is 6.2.0-36-generic.

Thanks!

    I hope you already solved your problem. I have a 7800xt like you and bought it a week after it launched, I had a distro based on Ubuntu with xanmod kernel and Mesa from oibaf PPA So after I plugged in the GPU, I had to download the latest firmware.git and extract it on the right path, after this I just rebooted and everything was working good.
