Summary0005634: Strace for 0005626 (driver misconfiguration/misdetection)
DescriptionWas supposed to be a comment for 0005626 but closed. The user argues his OS correctly recognizes and uses POLARIS10 drivers, not VMware and has provided strace (3.2 MB, can't attach in mantis - see https://github.com/ZeroK-RTS/Zero-K/issues/2363 ).
TagsNo tags attached.

I am the user.

For completeness, reproduced the results in a non-vmware virtual machine and attached the drm from that as well. The infolog could not be found, otherwise the results were similar. Both times were on Debian 9.

The user argues incorrectly and should stop blaming his problems on Spring.

"POLARIS" is the code name ATI/AMD has given the *CHIPSET* baked into the silicon of their GCN Radeon 400 series GPU's, and has *NO RELATION AT ALL* with the GL drivers installed on his system that tell this chipset what to do. *THOSE* need fixing because this user has decided (for some reason) to use *VMWARE'S* distribution of the *MESA* GL driver stack when he *SHOULD* be using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMDGPU-Driver instead; *NOTE* the "supported hardware" table. https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-amdgpu-drivers-on-debian-9-stretch-linux is also worth reading.

Further reports will not be handled until I see evidence that the above information was *CORRECTLY* understood and acted upon.
