7900xt showing as AMD Unknown in vulkaninfo blender 3.5 does not recognize

Hello,

I recently installed Ubuntu 22.04 from 20.04. With this upgrade meant reinstalling drivers for the 7900xt.

I initially tried the 22.40.3 for Ubuntu 22.04.2 drivers and installed via `amdgpu -y`. Install went fine and Minecraft recognized the device. Everything seemed good, until I tried to play a steam game. Steam refused to use the GPU. I then tried blender (3.5) and blender did not recognize my installation. Since then, I have settled on the following process to get me 80% of the way.

Install Kernel 6.1

sudo apt install linux-oem-22.04c

Use linux-firmware-20230404 (just what is inside amdgpu).

And use Mesa 23.0.2

This allows Minecraft to work (most important...) and steam games run without issue (as well as ksp2 can run...). Blender however still does not recognize the installation (not important but would like it to work...). Looking into vulkaninfo, my card is showing as "AMD Unknown"...

Any ideas on how to get this to work would be greatly appreciated. Ideally, I would like to not reinstall again but I do still have my backup so I am willing to give it a shot. I will also give the AMD driver 23.x.x a shot when they get released.... Overall, I am still happy that I upgraded from my old 580 but I am reminded again of why I normally do not get the newest and greatest piece of hardware...

Thank you!
