For NVIDIA driver I can't remember a time where it failed me. The dkms
module works just fine, is updated regularly and follows the
Debian/unsable kernel. I'm today using 4.9.13. AMDGPU-PRO is supported
only for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with kernel 4.4 and this won't move for one
more full year!
Just for getting the feel of it I run Xubuntu 16.04 LTS in virtualbox,
with an eye on installing it on a real machine.
There was a regular update on my virtual Xbuntu, kernel 4.4 to kernel
4.8. So they are updating it.
The following relates to Ubuntu, but if you have an answer;-)
Quesions would be:
Does the ampgpu-pro work with this kernel on a "real" Xubuntu machine. I
wouldn't bother if openCL were not available there.
I'm not that familiar with the Ubuntu family. Xubuntu offers darktable
2.0.3. Is there a "painless" way for upgrading to a newer darktable?
