Ubuntu - GPU - AMD GPU - Setup an AMD video card

Install the official amdgpu driver from a third-party PPA repository

To install the PPA third-party repository drivers execute the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers

NOTE: Another alternative for drivers is https://launchpad.net/~paulo-miguel-dias/+archive/ubuntu/mesa

The above will add the PPA AMD Radeon driver repository to your system. The following command will upgrade your current AMD Radeon driver to the latest version:

sudo apt update && sudo apt -y upgrade

In case you need to revert back to your original Ubuntu AMD Radeon drivers you can remove the PPA driver installation using the below commands:

sudo apt install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers
