But the the extension is present
vulkaninfo | grep VK_KHR_surfaceWARNING: radv is not a conformant vulkan implementation, testing use only.
VK_KHR_surface : extension revision 25
Vulkan Instance Version: 1.1.70
Any idea? I want to see if with vulkan the framerate is a little more "stable"
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.5 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.0.5and so the kernel, 4.15.0-39-generic. RX 570 also here :)
If there isn't a workaround, I think I'll wait for 18.04.2 that is scheduled for February. I played for around 1 hour and the game wasn't smooth with many framedrops; maybe I'm wrong, but I expect that with vulkan could be a better experience.
Thank you
I had some problem in the past but maybe at that time I had also fglrx, it is much better the situation now :)
Thank you again
