I installed my XFX 2GB RX 460 Graphics card last week and it's been working good on Windows 7, however, when I tried installing the drivers in 16.10 I found out they're not out there yet (had a login loop) and 16.04 drivers AMDGPU-Pro are not compatible with 16.10 so I downgraded to 16.04.
When I tried logging in with 16.04 I found out my drivers weren't compatible either I can only access TTY, I can't even see the login screen, tried using ubuntu-devices
and other fixes I found on the web but nothing worked. Lastly I read that you had to downgrade to 14.04 so I did but I found the same error, a window telling me my drivers are not compatible and that I will use simple graphics for one session, but the only thing it shows is the tty console, tried doing apt-get update
and apt-get update
from there but it didn't work either.
I'm writing from my Windows partition right now, I really wanted to be able to run my graphics card in Ubuntu so I could get rid of Windows for good but I think it won't happen.
I don't know what else to do to at least try get some visual enverioment in Ubuntu with my new RX 460.
Hope someone with the same problem has fixed it and is willing to help. Thanks in advance.
