@gpuopen Q: When are you going to fix the random crash to black screen issues on #AMD #Radeon #7900XTX?

Cuz it's extremely frustrating for users like @fuchsiii when their #Linux-compatible #GPU is less reliable than the shitty #GMA500!

Espechally since we're talking about a €1k+ GPU and not some shitty Voltari Z11 / SiliconMotion SM750-based VGA card that is being sold for €10 with shipping on Aperzon!

@fuchsiii @bastetfurry @kkarhan @gpuopen seriously, I’ve tried to start learning my way through amdgpu and this is the correct response.

@josephholsten @fuchsiii @bastetfurry @gpuopen I'd accept that if it was some old.abandonware by a defunct company (i.e. #Linux drivers for #3dfx cards) but not for a product that is beibg advertised to support #Linux and even if it wasn't costs 4 digits MSRP.

We ain't in 2007 anymore where everything but #Intel didn't work and #nvidia was like "here, take this binaryblob!" and #ATi was like "go fuck yourself!" when it comes to #GPU drivers.

@josephholsten @fuchsiii @bastetfurry @gpuopen having a #GPU randomly go #braindead until reset is not only inacceptable, but inexcuseable!

Shit like this doesn't happen with any other card amd I'm used to #jank like #ExpressCard-based USB 3.0 controllers!

@kkarhan @fuchsiii @bastetfurry @gpuopen Exactly. Seems deserving of an RMA.

@josephholsten @fuchsiii @bastetfurry @gpuopen no.

Deserves a "fix it or give me my money back and reimburse me for the cost of migrating to another manufacturer" kinda lawsuit.

But that's not legal advice, but me.being used to flex on suppliers if need be.
