Hi
I dont know how to set vulkan with the new card,
in the nvidia card i had a nvidia_icd.json file inside /etc/vulkan/icd.d
but i changed my video card to a rx580 and i dont have any file inside /etc/vulkan/icd.
i installed Amdgpu drivers
what files do i need?
do i need to install something else to have vulkan working?
i have media-libs/vulkan-loader installed.

Did you build mesa with vulkan support? Post the output of emerge --info mesa.

Having no files in /etc/vulkan/icd.d is correct, they should be in /usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/.

I have a very old version of mesa. it seems it was build without vulkan support


Code:
media-libs/mesa-17.2.8::xorg-kit was built with the following:
USE="classic dri3 egl gallium gbm llvm nptl xa -bindist -d3d9 -debug -gles1 -gles2 -opencl -openmax -osmesa -pax_kernel -pic (-selinux) -unwind -vaapi -valgrind -vdpau -vulkan -wayland -xvmc" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" VIDEO_CARDS="radeonsi (-freedreno) -i915 -i965 (-imx) -intel -nouveau -r100 -r200 -r300 -r600 -radeon (-vc4) -virgl (-vivante) -vmware"

I don`t know how to set the USE flags in funtoo. If it's done as in gentoo, then in make.conf oder package.use.
But the best point for you is to ask here: https://forums.funtoo.org/

And it would not be a bad idea to update the system.
