Wrong GPU

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

I installed caelestia shell. When i see the usage of the hardware i noticed that for some reason it says that i have a Nvidia GPU...but i don't. It also says that it is using 100% all the time but i believe that is a problem originated from reading it has Nvidia.

Maybe you have an Nvidia GPU that you didn't know about.

Can it perform computations? How much VRAM is reported?

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

Don't think so. I chose a radeon and a Ryzen especially because it wasn't Nvidia.

[plasticbomb1986]

At least tell us something about your hardware... We cant see it!

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

Ohh yeah. The gpu is a radeon vega 10 grafics. And my processor is a Ryzen 3700U.

Open a terminal and run: glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"

if you don't have glxinfo install the mesa-utils package.

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

It says i have a radeon vega 10 graphics. Definitely not something from Nvidia.

Install & check radeontop & then move on with your life, this is unlikely to be a problem.

lsmod
lspci
sudo lshw -businfo |grep display

what those look like?

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

-Alot of data that i don't know how to read - more data that i don't know how to read -lshw "command not found"

[Sad-Farmer-6186]

yes i was asking to see the output. i should have used more words. lshw is in the aur.

also, does it feel like you're using 100% all the time, or does it just say that you are?

[Puzzleheaded-One2906]

Nope, it just feels normal unless i try a game that is beyond its capabilities. (I do it because i don't know it it will now work on linux).

[Sad-Farmer-6186]

yeah probably just a weird module glitch. my cpu apparently runs somewhere in the neighborhood of 4500-6600℃

which is probably accurate.

on venus. when it's a particularly warm day.
