Thanks for the details. Since the end goal of this project is to control AMD GPU's which is only possible when using the latest drivers, all tools in the package had been written to be dependent on the existence of /sys/module/amdgpu/parameters/ppfeaturemask. The driver must be "amdgpu". If I execute lshw | grep configuration, I can see the line "configuration: driver=amdgpu latency=0" indicating the driver. Which driver package are you using? I will try to do some research to better describe GPU compatibility.

I have added a check for amdgpu and current driver package version at startup. Let me know if this correctly identifies your situation. Also, it looks like there is a version of the amdgpu drivers that is compatible with R5.

Improved compatibility checks and messaging in v2.0.0.
