System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19041-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: AMD Radeon(TM) Vega 3 Graphics ATI Technologies Inc. 4.5.13596 Core Profile Context 20.10.44.05 27.20.11044.5003

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.93.0, branch: master, commit date: 2021-06-02 11:21, hash: 84da05a8b8
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Everything in the viewport turns black after adding a blank grease pencil.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I have reproduced the error in the middle of a blend file, as well as a brand new one.

Shift+A -> add blank grease pencil -> everything is turned black.

If it helps at all, I was working in 2.92 and had this error, then updated to 2.93 and am still having the same issue.

[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

I cannot reproduce with NVIDIA card.

@fclem It looks a graphic card issue.

Wonderful x'D

I'm still learning my way around a computer, so I apologize if this seems like a silly question, but is this something I can rectify myself, or is it like, an incompatibility issue?

Also, thank you for looking into this so quickly.

20.10.44.05

Can you recheck after upgrading the driver to recent version?

I have an AMD Radeon Vega 3 Graphics card. I've checked and it is up to date.

Sorry this has been lying around for some time.

I would also suspect this to be a GPU issue, but just to make sure:

https:*www.amd.com/en/support seems to have newer drivers? https:*docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/troubleshooting/gpu/windows/amd.html#drivers
please also check a fresh build from https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/
