I'm trying to get my AMD card working with hashcat on Debian. I've installed the latest version of hashcat 7.1.2. When I try a benchmark, I get the warning "Unstable OpenCL driver detected!", and a segfault when trying to --force it.
I'm willing to install whatever proprietary driver is needed. I tried installing these nonfree packages, but nothing seems to change.
What change should I expect to see after installing these non-free drivers? How do I verify that the new driver is being used, or how do I tell the OS to use the newly installed driver? Do I need to reboot?
My inxi -G output appears unchanged:
And most importantly, hashcat still complains about "unstable opengl" driver and still segfaults.
I went to the official AMD website to try to download drivers, but they only appear to support RHEL, Ubuntu. Should I try the Ubuntu drivers? Or should the debian firmware-nonfree drivers work with hashcat?

█[asrock][hashcat][255]$ sudo sudo hashcat -b -d1 --force
hashcat (v7.1.2-65-g5e615188b) starting in benchmark mode
Benchmarking uses hand-optimized kernel code by default.
You can use it in your cracking session by setting the -O option.
Note: Using optimized kernel code limits the maximum supported password length.
To disable the optimized kernel code in benchmark mode, use the -w option.
You have enabled --force to bypass dangerous warnings and errors!
This can hide serious problems and should only be done when debugging.
Do not report hashcat issues encountered when using --force.
