sudo aptitude purge libdrm-amdgpu1 

https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/07/install-latest-mesa-ubuntu…
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
