<span dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">Do you truly need proprietary drivers? That card is one of the best supported by open source software. So I would just install mesa, which should be easily installed from your distro's package manager, if it's not installed already.</span>
<br>
<br><span dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">Assuming you do need proprietary, maybe try a reboot if you haven't already? It's giving a missing binary error and sometimes I get those after a kernel update and not rebooting.</span>

<p>Today the Radeon RX580 graphics card I bought arrived. To get the drivers for the card, I went here <br></p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap"><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.amd.com/en/support">https://www.amd.com/en/support</a> where I downloaded <span style="white-space: pre-wrap">amdgpu-install_6.0.60002-1_all.deb</span></span></p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap">Next I started following the instructions at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/">https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/</a> then I started running into problems.</span></span></p>
<p>amdgpu-install --vulkan=amdvlk,pro gave me 2 errors:</p>
<p>E: Unable to locate package vulkan-amdgpu-pro and the same for vulkan-amdgpu-pro:i386</p>
<p>I kept going and entered amdgpu-install -y --usecase=workstation</p>
<p>That returned the errors Unable to locate package amdgpu-pro and amdgpu-pro-lib32</p>
<p>With the error messages I figured I'd have problems, but I tried to find out if I could use the hardware acceleration so I entered<code>:</code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_amf -c:a copy output.mp4<br><br>
That gave me several errors. The first one was [h264_amf @ 0x562e1f855380] DLL libamfrt64.so.1 failed to open</font></code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">So I tried sudo updatedb and locate libamfrt64.so.1 which returned nothing. That told me the file wasn't there.</font></code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I tried to transcode a file with Handbrake but it didn't show h264_amf among the available codec options.</font></code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I tried searching for how to install libamfrt64.so.1 but all I got was references to steps I already tried.<br></font></code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Did I make a mistake somwhere or does AMD need to fix something?</font></code></p>
<p><code><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Thank for your help.</font></code></p>
