Mining ETH with AMD GPU Ubuntu 21.10

I want to mine ethereum with my gpu (rx580). After doing a bit of research, I found out that I need openCL and to get that I have to install the AMD gpu driver. Because I am on Ubuntu 21.10, the driver is not officially supported and when I tried to install it, it did not install properly. When I rebooted, the OS was bricked. It showed my the equivalent of a blue screen every time I rebooted. After reinstalling Ubuntu (but the same version) I still want to mine eth. Is there a way to do that without the amdgpu driver?

Try supported Ubuntu version 20.04.4. We have no driver support for Ubuntu 21.10
