apaz, the whole project of the PKGBUILD generator is based on parsing deb files, not rpm. The reason is that Ubuntu uses more recent kernel than CentOS. So, it is more chances that ubuntu's version driver will work with Arch's kernel.

An idea from an incompetent: since not only the amd driver has changed, but also Ubuntu 20.04 compared to the previous LTS. Maybe it's better to use as a basis for pkgbuild, the driver for RedHat/CentOS? After all for DaVinci Resolve is the OS with more support, judging by the BlackMagic forum.

MrTBuddy, thank you, appreciated. I just recently got access to machine with AMD GPU, so I also could test it. What I just did is downloaded the archive =)

There is some strange thing, that DR starts working right after installing amdgpu-pro-libgl. But my machine stucks at graphical target after rebooting. So I guess there should be a way how to launch dr with amdgpu pro libraries, and mask them for the rest of the system. However, I currently do not know exactly how to achieve that.

Hi everyone. I have taken care of the matter and am trying to update the package. However, the new driver package from AMD has received many changes and a lot has to be adapted. I will report back when I have shot my installation. ;-)

SDDM is crashing if amdgpu pro is installed and gives a coredump. The symptom is a black screen with SDDM's cursor, no greeter. Here is the content of the coredump

Will anyone update this?  

@Arsen6331 Installing the libGL subpackages is known to cause issues with Xorg, as well as Wayland compositors. It is unknown if they will ever work outside of the supported distributions.

Installing @hedgepigdaniel PKGBUILD makes Xorg coredump.

@kode54 ok thanks but now we will need PKGBUILD for libgbm because amdgpu_drv won't load.

@panospolychr: You need to drop @hedgepigdaniel's PKGBUILD into the full Git clone of this AUR package, as there are included source files.
