I am running Ubuntu 22.04 and I have an AMD Radeon R9 390 graphic card and an AMD® Ryzen 5 3600x 6-core CPU. Sometimes my computer simply either freezes or reboots out of nowhere, specially when watching a movie/youtube. When the computer starts again I see in the console an error code 8701013.

Googling it I get several people complaining about the same issue with the same combination of CPU and graphic card. From the google results it seems to be an issue with the graphic card driver so I decied to run sudo lshw -c video I get:

It says driver=radeon while I was expecting to see driver=amdgpu.

Googling driver=radeon seems to indicate it is a legacy gpu driver.

How can I install and make sure the latest amdgpu driver is properly installed?

Googling its release date it gives series 300 (up to 390X) as 2015 so yes, legacy therefore supported by `radeon`.

The above link informs which AMD chipsets are supported by amdgpu.

Everything else older than the aforementioned architectures is supported by radeon and that includes the 2015 R9 390.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
