AMD has released an update for AMD Radeon Software for Linux. This latest version adds backing for certain GPU models, including the RX 780 XT series and the RX 6750 XT models. Users can access the updated drivers through their Linux distribution's package manager or by downloading the standalone software from AMD directly, but it's essential to check compatibility before making a decision
AMD Radeon Software for Linux 25.35 released
AMD has released a new update for its open-source graphics software suite on Linux, called Radeon Software 25.35.
This latest version mainly brings enhanced support for older AMD GPUs. Key additions include backing for the AMD Radeon RX 780 XT series (like the RX 780 and RX 7900 GRE variants) and the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT models, among other updates to established graphics cards.
The heart of AMD's Linux graphics strategy is its commitment to open-source drivers. Because these are built into major distributions like Ubuntu or Fedora, many users can get them simply by updating their system; no extra download is needed for standard setups with older AMD hardware (APUs or discrete GPUs).
However, things aren't always that straightforward. For certain newer AMD cards or specific use cases, you might find it best to install the Radeon Software version provided directly through your Linux distribution's package manager.
This situation often comes up if you're using a more recent Linux distro and have either an AMD APU product line GPU (like Ryzen with Radeon graphics) or one of their powerful discrete GPUs from earlier generations. In these cases, the drivers included in your distribution are usually recommended, as they get regular updates alongside other system packages.
