Ubuntu MATE 20.04.3 LTS
6600XT GPU
replacing my old gpu with a new one and having a real hurdle.
downloaded the proper 21.40.2 for ubuntu 20.04.3 file here
Followed directions here
even got the pro package from here and followed the extraction method
ran update, upgrade distro, reboot, and.... nothing. Plugging hdmi into gpu doesn't output video.
i checked software & updates and proprietary drivers are checked, when i check additional drivers, it shows nothing.
running
lspci -k | grep -A 2 -i "VGA"
shows that the system recognizes i have the proper gpu in place
running
sudo ubuntu-drivers devices
returns nothing
running amdgpu-install and amdgpu-pro-install output:
user@user-LinuxDesktop:~/Desktop/amdgpu-pro-20.20-1098277-ubuntu-20.04$ ./amdgpu-install -y

The amdgpu driver is already installed or was not uninstalled correctly.
Please fully uninstall the driver before proceeding with installation
You can try running the amdgpu-uninstall or amdgpu-pro-uninstall script
present in /usr/bin to clean up the previous installation

but when i check with dpkg -l amdgpu amdgpu is confirmed but amdgpu-pro is not.
i've updated and upgraded and rebooted and i can't get the gpu to activate and it still does not show up under additional drivers.
any thoughts?
