I've been working with Ubuntu 22.04 on my laptop for ages and now I finally saved up to buy a desktop. My AMD GPU is a Radeon RX 6950XT. I was told that I have to install the AMD graphics drivers, because there are applications like Steam that can't be launched from the start menu unless you download the drivers. Whenever I try to open up Steam from the start menu it just opens then closes constantly, which I was told that you need to download the AMD drivers in order to solve this issue.
Also whenever I type the update-initramfs command it always gives me a few warnings saying that amdgpu firmware was missing, but whenever I use Ubuntu 22.04's amdgpu-install package I've been getting errors. The first error I got was There were errors while processing amdgpu-dkms. I researched and I assume I was just using the wrong package, so I downloaded a different package that a person on a thread said was definitely the version for Ubuntu 22.04, but installing the package gave me an unmet dependencies error message saying that some dependencies were uninstallable.
I've really searched up and down to try to find a way to install amdgpu graphics drivers, and I really cannot find a solid way to do it without issue. Furthermore actually, when I said that there a dependency issue someone in the thread said to downgrade the dependencies list and that actually worked last night, but when I booted up my computer this morning it didn't list xorg on the login screen and if I go to the "About" section of settings it doesn't list my graphics card as the one I have. Instead it says that my graphics are llvm.
I've already clean wiped my Ubuntu 22.04 system several times and I thought it got it working this time, but it seems like I have a driver issue again. One thing to note though, whenever it was correctly detecting my graphics card whenever I typed the command sudo update-initramfs -k all -c it gave me several errors saying that amdgpu firmware was "possibly missing", but now after it detects my graphics card as llvm it doesn't show me this error at all anymore. I'm assuming that the system isn't even using the amdgpu graphics anymore and just defaulted to whatever "llvm" is.
That was just additional information. M main reason for coming here to ask a question is I wanted to know is there actually a way to install amdgpu graphics drivers on Ubuntu 22.04? I read that I might need to downgrade to 20.04 because some packages don't even work at all in jammy, but I wanted to ask here if there is actually a working way to make this just finally work for me.
