--- Comment #7 from Michel Dänzer michel@daenzer.net --- Any chance you can use git bisect to find the change between 4.8 and 4.9 which introduced the problem?
(In reply to Reimar Imhof from comment #6)
Do I need a special config for loading the amdgpu driver?
There is no video-driver specific config in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
There should be a /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-amdgpu.conf file which causes the amdgpu driver to be used automatically for GPUs controlled by the amdgpu kernel driver. If that file is missing, please report the problem to openSuse.
