Description Jan Ziak (atomsymbol) 2017-03-16 21:52:28 UTC

Radeontop-1.0 supports the amdgpu.ko kernel driver for VRAM usage reporting, but it needs to be explicitly enabled at compile-time.

$ head -n12 radeontop-1.0/Makefile
# ....
# Options:
#       ....
#	amdgpu	enable amdgpu VRAM size and usage reporting, default off
#		because amdgpu requires libdrm >= 2.4.63

$ cd radeontop-1.0 && amdgpu=1 make

Eix currently shows this:

$ eix -e radeontop
[I] x11-apps/radeontop
     Available versions:  (~)1.0 **9999 {nls}

Instead, the expected eix output should look like this:

$ eix -e radeontop
[I] x11-apps/radeontop
     Available versions:  (~)1.0 **9999 {nls} VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu"
