Hello there, first at all, i am not sure where to file this issue report so my current "workaround" is to use the archlinux issue tracker.
I recently got a new rx560 and installed amdgpu plus vdpau packages.
While 3D rendering seems to work as expected, all the 2D rendering is unclean.
It is no tearing but stuttering that is to see on scrolling/gnome&such effects/cameradrives in movies/cursors in gimp and so on.
