This is a fresh install of a 16.04 and within a week to 18.04 soon after 18.04 came out.



I've already updated all my software (to the best of my knowledge), rebooted. Running 4.15.0-20-generic. What other pieces of information do you all need?

So some more random digging: glxgears returns an error upon exit:

300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.998 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.999 FPS
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0"

    There was a question about AMD drivers recently, and it looks like the AMD proprietary drivers for 500 series cards are still in pre release. Have you tried installing the driver from here: support.amd.com/en-us/download/linux

  • also, it would likely help if you posted your lsmod and lspci output. thanks

An odd video performance issue has come up. I'm getting regular choppy video playback. Kind of hard to explain but I'll do my best.



While doing any activity (like scrolling in a web browser, playing back video (gif/jif), gaming (Surviving Mars via Steam), VLC crashes, etc.) my screens will 'pause' for a tenth of a second like it is dropping frames and then resumes. Repeats every second to two seconds. The oddity is that the 2D/3D rendering when not 'hiccuping' is spot on and awesome.



This is a fresh install of a 16.04 and within a week to 18.04 soon after 18.04 came out.



I've already updated all my software (to the best of my knowledge), rebooted. Running 4.15.0-20-generic. What other pieces of information do you all need?

    There was a question about AMD drivers recently, and it looks like the AMD proprietary drivers for 500 series cards are still in pre release. Have you tried installing the driver from here: support.amd.com/en-us/download/linux

  • also, it would likely help if you posted your lsmod and lspci output. thanks

An odd video performance issue has come up. I'm getting regular choppy video playback. Kind of hard to explain but I'll do my best.



While doing any activity (like scrolling in a web browser, playing back video (gif/jif), gaming (Surviving Mars via Steam), VLC crashes, etc.) my screens will 'pause' for a tenth of a second like it is dropping frames and then resumes. Repeats every second to two seconds. The oddity is that the 2D/3D rendering when not 'hiccuping' is spot on and awesome.



This is a fresh install of a 16.04 and within a week to 18.04 soon after 18.04 came out.



I've already updated all my software (to the best of my knowledge), rebooted. Running 4.15.0-20-generic. What other pieces of information do you all need?

An odd video performance issue has come up. I'm getting regular choppy video playback. Kind of hard to explain but I'll do my best.



While doing any activity (like scrolling in a web browser, playing back video (gif/jif), gaming (Surviving Mars via Steam), VLC crashes, etc.) my screens will 'pause' for a tenth of a second like it is dropping frames and then resumes. Repeats every second to two seconds. The oddity is that the 2D/3D rendering when not 'hiccuping' is spot on and awesome.

    There was a question about AMD drivers recently, and it looks like the AMD proprietary drivers for 500 series cards are still in pre release. Have you tried installing the driver from here: support.amd.com/en-us/download/linux

Configure the cad with amdconfig



You may just need to do an initial configuration of your card after the upgrade:



sudo amdconfig –adapter=all –initial


Try other drivers from "Software & Updates"



Click on activities link in Dock ( grid of 9 dots ) and search for "updates". Launch Software & Updates click on additional drivers tab and look for other driver options there. Test drive other driver versions.



Enable DRI3



Add the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf 



Section "Device"
 Identifier "AMDGPU"
 Driver "amdgpu"
 Option "AccelMethod" "glamor"
 Option "DRI" "3"
EndSection


Install latest drivers



There is an excellent tutorial for installing the latest drivers for AMD video cards:

    May 8 at 19:32










  • I would try to start running xorg -configure. This may even solve your problem. If not then add the entry to the xorg.conf file. You did and update/upgrade/reboot after adding the PPA, correct?
    – Joshua Besneatte
    May 8 at 20:33










  • Yeah. Did the update/upgrade/reboot stuff. Looks like DRI3 is already enabled "xdpyinfo | grep DRI". Guess I'm waiting for the new official drivers.

How to enroll fingerprints to Ubuntu 17.10 with VFS491

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 1 down vote favorite I decided to switch from Windows to Ubuntu 17.10, I meet it like 8 years ago and I didn't decided to switch until now (haha). Well, my actual device is an HP Probook 4540s with a Validity fingerprint sensor (VFS491). The fingerprint sensor worked fine on Windows but I can't get it to work in Ubuntu. The device is recognized as 138a:003d but is not detected as a fingerprint scanner by some apps like Fingerprint GUI. I want to use the fingerprint scanner to log in into my user account in Ubuntu but it doesn't supports fingerprints without special software and the drivers of the fingerprint scanner are available for Windows but not for any Linux distribution. I found something on GitHub (https://github.com/eekpie/libfprint) about the integration of the VFS491 in libfprint and I think it can help but I don't know what to do with it, so that's why I need the help of the community to do it since I am...
