Last weekend i installed Linux Mint 18.1. on a separate HD besides Win 7 and Mint 17.2. After doing all udates and upgrades i tried to install the AMD gpu Pro drivers but only got unsupported OS. Anyone got this to work ? Simple how to would be nice. Thanks in advance. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

There was a thread awhile back about Linux and AMD ... somewhere down that list ... |

Driver 16.60 caused a cinamon crash. So i installed 16.40 and it runs fine so far. Anyone knows a tool to monitor GPU temp with Ubuntu 16.04. and AMD GPU ? AMDoverdrivecontrol seems not to work ? With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Hi, try googling psensors It may support AMD GPUs too. EDIT: It does. http://wpitchoune.net/psensor/ Petri To overcome Heisenbergs: "You can't always get what you want / but if you try sometimes you just might find / you get what you need." -- Rolling Stones |

Thanks Petri will have a look at it. I use GKrellM for the desktop and i read it also supports GPU monitoring but haven`t found how to configure. Any ideas ? Also i am interested in pmsensor alternatives. Thanks in advance. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Hi, You could try and google 'lm-sensors Radeon' or 'sensors-detect radeon'. Petri To overcome Heisenbergs: "You can't always get what you want / but if you try sometimes you just might find / you get what you need." -- Rolling Stones |

I was able to configure GKrellM to show GPU temps with your suggestions. Thanks much Petri. Since overdrive control doesn`t work with the pro drivers i`m now looking for something to adjust fan speed on Mint 18. Something like aticonfig maybe ? Suggestions ?
