PhoenixMiner 5.3b on Linux no control for clock and voltage

I have rig 8 x rx580 and trying to move from windows to linux.
I have installed Ubuntu 18.04.5 HWE with kernel 5.6.0 and  amdgpu-pro-20.20-1089974-ubuntu-18.04. (./amdgpu-pro-install -y --opencl=pal,legacy --headless)
It seems that miner can not control clock and voltage

What is wrong? any help/advice would be greatly appreciated



Did you read ReleaseNotes?
... Implemented hardware control (setting clocks, voltages, power limit, fan control) for AMD cards under Linux.
    Requires PhoenixMiner running with root permissions. The clocks and voltage control require relatively
    new drivers (tested on 19.30-855429) and adding the following boot parameter to Linux kernel:
      amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff ...

The next question will be how to do that.  Smiley
