Yep. You're going to discover drivers on Linux if they say they're only for "version xx.xx.x" then more than likely they're only going to work on that version and no other. It's not like Windows where a Windows XP or Windows 7 driver/application can run on Windows 10. The compatibility isn't there. In these scenarios I believe you have to compile the driver yourself from binary for your distro but I have no idea how to do that. Out of curiosity did you try turning the computer on with just the DVI display attached? I assume nothing but a black screen after the BIOS Splash?
I plan to compile once I test the VGA/display port adapter I ordered. As you mentioned, it should show a black screen immediately after the BIOS splash. Either hot swapping or using DVI during boot.
You may modify /etc/os-release, update the ID to ubuntu and install the amd driver via nano. Exit with CTRL+X, press Y then Enter. After installation, revert the ID or adjust the amdgpu_install.sh script to include the case "$ID" in ubuntu|linuxmint|debian pop".
You appreciated your feedback. However, discovering that HDMI through a display port works made me reconsider. I chose to give up and stop using the DVI port altogether.
