You Sir are a scholar and a gentleman. Having spent a few days installing various AMD proprietary drivers together with different Ubuntu OS versions, I despaired of getting a second screen working with my IdeaPad L340 with AMD Ryzen 7 3700U and Radeon Vega Mobile GFX (which I understand is an RX Vega 10). Following your guide I have succeeded. Thank you so much for both the method and commands and a very coherent video.
I'm just searching about Linux on Ryzen and found your video. I have to tell you did a fantastic job how to solve these driver issues, I hope you keep your style.
I just purchased a ThinkPad T495 that has a Ryzen 7 3700U. I installed Arch Linux (with KDE Plasma), everything just worked out of the box 😄 The R7 3700U is still a very capable chip, and I picked this laptop up for peanuts!
Thanks for this! I just used Mint's update manager to select a 5.0 kernel from the Kernels menu (View > Linux Kernels). Other than that minor difference in how I did it, this did the trick!
Thank you so much. I had the same problem with a lenovo notebook with my ryzen 7 3700u and therefor linux was pretty much useless in my notebook. I dual-booted Windows 10 but I didn't use linux as often as I wanted to because of this problem I had.
Hi, thanks for the video. Currently using which version of the kernel? I tried to upgrade to mint 20 and had a lot of problems. In my case, to be stable, only mint 19.3 with a 5.0.13 kernel. Big hug
Thanks for the tutorial. I've been running Mint for a few years. Then tried out Pop OS, but the latest update has some weird bugs, that it will black screen after log in if the power adaptor isn't connected. Going back to MInt although there is still some strange issues with the latest kernal. Looks like Linux has some work to do with AMD CPU and GPU.
Many thanks for this video! I am about to buy another HP laptop on Ryzen 3700U and was afraid about GNU/Linux deployment. Thanks to this video, I know how to instantly deploy GPU hardware acceleration at very least. All right, then. Can I ask you to share your user experience? What about power consumption? How long it remain functioning under average load? Is Linux Mint to spend battery charge carefully? Aaaand.. what about gaming? Especially, gaming on Linux, ofc. Have you ever detected performance loss when playing on Linux? And the last question: what about Linux stability on that bad guy? Yup, you mentioned, that on latest kernel you have high chance to catch a glitch, but still.. have you actually experienced any serious bugs during everydaylife device usage?
Don't helps me fully, I am get 90% of booting with black screen and error "Failed to start Detect the available GPUs and deal with ant system changes" in systemd log for gru-manager.service. Trying different kernels, from 4.15 to 5.7. Now on 5.4 kernel I can reboot with Ctrl+Alt+Del on black screen, previous I be able to reboot system only with a power button. Today I update system to Mint 20 Cinnamon with 5.4.0-40 kernel, and the boot problem persists. So now I trying to stay system only in work or suspend modes when system successefully loads a GPU.
Even if I had to settle for an "old" Ryzen 3500U laptop for the moment, what distro out there would you recommend me that comes with all of this already done for me? I don't want to mess with any of this, since I usually use "Live Session" USB to preserve my hard disk lifespan, there's no easy way for me to reset the machine. My previous laptop from 2010 worked fine with Xubuntu 16.04, no additional tweakings required. But for brand new hardware, I'm not sure.
I built my son a new PC. AMD Ryzen 3 2200 w/ Vega 8 16 GB ram. Not a great system but sufficient for a 10 year old. My son wants to play roblox with his friends. Now do not ask me why the a## hat game developers do not support Linux but as I tell my son we all must put up with stupid people in the world. So use the win 7 64 that came with his old broken down Acer and build a VM. well I spend 3 days learning that VirtualBox does not do so well with GPU pass through. But, I find guidance ... spend an hour working on the pass through .... unfortunately my Mint 19 is not recognizing my Vega 3. Spend 3 hours researching why when I finally stumble upon this video. 10 minutes following your instructions and now Mint 19 is all up to date and working perfectly. Now I believe I should be able to continue with building the VM. Thanks for the guidance. There should be a banner on Mint's home page telling people to come to you for proper guidance. I have rambled enough. Again thank you for being you
I feel you, it drove me up the walls for days, I'm glad it was helpful to you. If you like to help other people find it faster, give it a like and subscribe.
My Intel HD 5500 performs 8505.512 FPS on ArchLinux, that Vega 10 should be way better than mine. My suggestion, instead of using Linux Mint with PPAs, just use ArchLinux with LTS kernel. AMD graphics and AMD CPUs needs the latest "kernel", mesa, and drivers version, but the most important drivers and mesa. Also AMD microcode.
Do You know how to disable AMD graphics and use Nvidia GTX card instead ? Also running on Ryzen - linux Mint and Kernel 5.1 . Nvidia drivers 430 are installed but not used on my laptop ;(
How much did you pay for a machine like this in Euros? I've been waiting for the new Ryzen 4500U laptops to arrive my area, but they are still charging me full price 500 USD to get Ryzen 3500U laptops, tech from almost 2 years ago, no way.
I recently bought a Ryzen 3700 on a Gigabyte x470 Gaming Ultra and have been unpleasantly surprised by an unstable system since. It's how I came across this video. Now, the Bios is a funky BS webinterface lacking the options that I have read might deal with the problem, so I intend to toss that crap and buy another one. Can anyone recommend a Mobo that has delivered a stable Linux on a Ryzen3700? I used Mint 19.2 so far (I really like it), but any distro that delivers stable results will do. I guess slapping on Cinnamon should be possible.
Did you ever find distros that work for these Ryzens? I have Ryzen 3500U... Mint did not work for me, screen was borked. I don't even care about performance that much, just something that works and doesn't overheat would be super fine LOL
Seriously, latest updated Mint didn't even come with updated Wifi drivers? What disappointment. I've been very disappointed with the linux community as of late, they need to keep up with the pace. And it's strange, because these laptops have been using almost the same Wifi devices for the past 10 years, with minor differences. What would justify the difficulty in loading drivers from boot? I don't get it. Seems to me an issue rather simple to avoid.
In my case the performance depended on almost everything. The source and version of the graphics drivers, the version of the kernel, the operating system and the version, the ambient room temperatur and so on. The best performance I could get is what I showed in the video. But about 6000 FPS was my average score testing.
@@Cutrexxx What versions of Ubuntu and Mint work on this Ryzen APU? I tried Mint 20.10, no luck, screen was borked. Also, the temperature sensors were not recognized. Any recommendations of distros? Did the touchpad worked fine for you?
@@FeelingShred i use ubuntu now and every version works. do you have installed linux from an usb-stick? if so make sure you set the partition table to gpt and uefi (uefi use gpt). i use rufus for preparing the usb-stick. in bios the legacy-boot option must be turned of. hope i could help you :)
@@Cutrexxx Booting is not a problem. Mint screwed my whole screen, I could not do anything. The screen was "glitched" (only the top portion of it worked, I had to reboot from a terminal using keyboard commands.

Great video! Really helped me out, i had the same problem on my ryzen 3 3200G
Thank you sir. I used 5.3 kernel for my Lenovo Ideapad S340 with Rayzen 7 3700u
Really helpful video. Thank you sir.

Hello, nice video. Do you know if the typical machine learning libraries work on this machine that does not have a Nvidia GPU?
Oh Man you are Gread, Thank you so much
thank you i try to find a solution since 3 days
That helped me so much thx m8. :)
Anyone who tells me to happy, happy, joy, joy deserves my subscription ;-)
Thank you for the sub!

Thanks you are the messiahs
Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU
Ty it work on 3500U too
Ukuu is no more free
dude.. youre like the Liam Neeson of computers.

Do machines usually arrive in Germany costing the same as in Dollars? Or there is an overhead due to importation?

probably in 5 years linux will support this hardware... My HP probook with ryzen 7 3700U is working superb on win10
Linux does support this hardware, that's the topic of this video! But I guess you couldn't even read the title.
The problem was, is and will always be "AMD"
