Graphics Cards

Phoronix's end-of-2025 benchmarking on Linux 6.19 exposed severe hard hangs on AMD's newer RDNA3 and RDNA4 GPUs, halting tests across kernels 6.18 and 6.19—with no fixes from AMD or kernel logs for diagnosis. Building on prior coverage of performance boosts for legacy GCN GPUs now defaulting to AMDGPU, tests succeeded steadily on a wide range of older and mid-range hardware using Mesa 26.0-devel drivers.

NVIDIA has released Linux driver version 590.44.01, which excludes support for the older GTX 900 and GTX 10 series graphics cards. This marks the end of regular updates for these Maxwell and Pascal-based GPUs on Linux systems. Users with these cards may need to revert to legacy drivers for continued compatibility.
