Hi guys, i'm trying to install amd drivers to run opencl in my gpu but I think deepin haven't recognized my gpu. in the images below you will see my driver windown, my  lspci | grep -i --color 'vga\|3d\|2d'  output with my GPU model, and at last the error I get when I try to install the AMD Catalyst Driver.

Is there any driver I can use, because currently I`ve been using with no drivers..

换低版本内核就可以了,我知道的3.16版本内核就可以安装AMD/ATI显卡驱动。
楼主用英文考我,我用中文试试楼主能不能猜出内容。

You've already run with the opensource driver.

Oh,  that's entirely correct! My mistake! hahahaahaha Do you know if there as an idea of when this AMD Catalyst Driver can be compatible with Deepin? I wish to use some opencl and parallel computing with my GPU.

AMD Catalyst Driver is deprecated by AMD and it will not be compatible with Deepin.
For opencl you can use the one provided by mesa.
