====== Ubuntu - GPU - AMD GPU - Modules - Restart a failed amdgpu kernel module ======

If the video card crashes, an option is to just restart the graphics modules.

----

===== Restart the graphics modules =====

<code bash>
sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/N/amdgpu_gpu_recover
</code>

----

===== Another approach to restart the graphics modules =====

Start your system with **amdgpu.gpu_recovery=1** kernel parameter to automatically reset it on a crash.

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  Using the **gpu_recovery** kernel parameter, allows you to save your work even if it is not visible, and then reboot.
