Well the new drivers should use more of AMD Vega potential so I rushed to install Ubuntu and the new drivers but have problems...Claymore or Ethminer just won't mine...I have this problem:
Cannot build OpenCL program for GPU
So I have a question since I don't know much about Ubuntu...
Are these drivers installed ok, this is the report:
~$ dpkg -l amdgpu-proDesired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
