##### Known Issues / Workarounds
######## If you Plan to Run with X11 - we are seeing X freezes under load
ROCm 1.7.2 a kernel parameter noretry has been set to 1 to improve overall system performance. However it has been proven to bring instability to graphics driver shipped with Ubuntu. This is an ongoing issue and we are looking into it.
Before that, please try apply this change by changing noretry bit to 0.
```shell
echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/module/amdkfd/parameters/noretry
```
Files under /sys won't be preserved after reboot so you'll need to do it every time.
One way to keep noretry=0 is to change /etc/modprobe.d/amdkfd.conf and make it be:
options amdkfd noretry=0
Once it's done, run sudo update-initramfs -u. Reboot and verify /sys/module/amdkfd/parameters/noretry stays as 0.
##### Removing pre-release packages
If you installed any of the ROCm pre-release packages from github, they will
need to be manually un-installed:
