sudo aptitude purge libdrm-amdgpu1

sudo apt install ppa-purge
Next purge the Ubuntu PPA which will downgrade all the installed packages:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
For Linux Mint 20, it’s recommended to add -d focal flag to work safely:
sudo ppa-purge -d focal ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
glxinfo | grep Mesa
