Comment 1 Thomas Andrews 2022-03-03 21:54:52 CET 
No installation issues.

The only hardware that I have that uses the amdgpu driver has an "Oland" GPU, and is thus not on the list of affected GPUs. And indeed, after updating and rebooting, it still works, with a glmark2 score of 1384.

Comment 4 Thomas Andrews 2022-03-04 23:54:22 CET 
I have two other machines with Radeon/AMD GPUs: an HD 8490 and an old RV200. Both use the radeon driver and should not be affected by this update. However, just to be sure, I have tried it on both machines, with no issues noted.

Absent tests on the actual GPUs listed, about all we can do is see that it does not break existing systems, which it does not. Giving this an OK, and validating. Advisory in Comment 0.
