			<description><![CDATA[<p>I hope I didn&#039;t scare uther, chris2be8 away by originally not saying as much, but I&#039;ll elaborate.&#160; I use OpenCL for number-crunching, such as Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) and sometimes cryptocurrency mining.&#160; It varies.&#160; I crunched more for BOINC than 96% of crunchers (since I had a 19.2 GFlops workstation when many weren&#039;t even 1/8 that) and still like doing so much.&#160; I don&#039;t know how BOINC uses; all I know is I need OpenCL: don&#039;t know I can get away with parts.&#160; I usually install like the following.</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>amdgpu-install --usecase=opencl --opencl=rocr --no-32 --no-dkms --accept-eula</code></pre></div><p>Last night I did get a RX 5700 XT working by rsyncing most a workstation/server to another then restoring original fstab, etc... I&#039;ll ask about this in another thread.</p><p>I wrote what I mostly use, but when my *BSD &amp; Slackware workstation broke down, I had to use family Devuan one while, and it was much better than using regular Debian, Kubuntu/Neon, Xubuntu/Mint, RedHat, and easier than both Gentoo and Arch/Artix.&#160; Now I&#039;m asking about OpenCL on Devuan 4 which I consider the best OS for my family&#039;s PCs.&#160; What I use mostly doesn&#039;t get automatic updates or otherwise would be too hard for them to add stuff, but Devuan at least can use KDE&#039;s software installer, though we all now use XFCE with KDE programs for a few years.&#160; I guess in a few weeks/months I&#039;ll upgrade them to Devuan 5 (I probably had been using development/experimental/testing version if I hadn&#039;t just made a typographical error).</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>you should be able to use opencl also without rocm, since it is supposed only for newer graphic cards (at least to my understanding).</p><p>what i use is &quot;amdgpu-install&quot; and since few iterations whas also able to get opencl on polaris gpu with the --opencl=legacy. (it is now however deprecated)<br />but devuan is bit tricky since it is not officially supported, as debian, but i can function (with some tricks).</p><p>what is use on newer graphics card that is supported by opencl rocr stack is combination like</p><div class="quotebox"><blockquote><div><p>sudo amdgpu-install -y --usecase=workstation,amf --opencl=rocr&#160; --vulkan=pro,amdvlk --accept-eula</p></div></blockquote></div><p>afterwards what is needed for opencl (at least on my computer)</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>sudo usermod -a -G render $LOGNAME</code></pre></div><div class="codebox"><pre><code>sudo usermod -a -G video $LOGNAME</code></pre></div><p><a href="https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-installing.html" rel="nofollow">https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/e … lling.html</a></p><p>for rocm, it seems your graphic cards are not supported aswell, but to be honest i am not seeing trough all those different install routines and graphics stacks.</p><p><a href="https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-ROCm-7.0.2-Released" rel="nofollow">https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-ROCm-7.0.2-Released</a></p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I was able to use AMD&#039;s ROCm/OpenCL on Devuan 4 with Radeon RX 6900 XT, but not RX 5700 XT, nor RX Vega 64, so I want to set this thread unsolved.&#160; Sometimes a newer driver doesn&#039;t work but older one does, and in the process of installing &amp; uninstalling several, often the installer runs but doesn&#039;t even install anything... sometimes it does; sometimes it doesn&#039;t.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>OpenCL works for all AMD display/video/graphics cards (which means desktop or server) not too old... in this case, Radeon RX Vega64 &amp; 5700 &amp; 6900 &amp; in future 7900 XT(X)s... CPU &amp; system-/logic-/main-/mother-board is irrelevant (maybe unless not too old, but they&#039;re i7s new enough): OpenCL is only for these graphics cards.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Saying what model(s) of GPU you need to run it on would be a good start. As would what CPU(s), motherboard(s) etc you have. You havn&#039;t even told us if you have a desktop or a laptop.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<div class="quotebox"><blockquote><div><p>after a few years, why isn&#039;t there the rocm-all package yet</p></div></blockquote></div><p>I don&#039;t know maybe because:<br />- Packaging team is less than 5 people.<br />- ROCm stack is gigantic, consists of userspace and kernel space drivers both graphic (interop) and compute plus a dozen specific Machine Learning libraries and more.<br />- ROCm depends on custom LLVM compiler - good luck porting it anywhere by yourself!<br />- Up until recently ROCm was scattered in 3 different official organizations on Github in 30+ repositories. Now its 1 org, but repo count is the same.<br />- Up until recently there was no proper hardware CI with GPUs in Debian.<br />- GPUs cost $$$ and the team basically bought the hardware with their own private money.</p><div class="quotebox"><blockquote><div><p>and otherwise, what&#039;s the full list what I need or how/where do I get that?</p></div></blockquote></div><p>You didn&#039;t even specify what exactly you need ROCm for and you expect to get useful answers?</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Most of the ROCm 5.2 stack is already packaged in Debian and is available on Daedalus. Look for `rocminfo`, `rocm-smi`, `libhsa-runtime64`, `libamdhip64`, `librocmsmi64`, etc. <br />And ROCm 5.7 is available on ceres if you dare.</p><p>At some point AMD in their infinite wisdom decided to change how they package AMDGPU-PRO drivers. All hacks that relied on extracting individual .deb from the official Ubuntu installer package stopped working.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>On Devuan 5 (or when stable, newer) can one install OpenCL/AMDGPU-PRO, and how?&#160; ROCm didn&#039;t work for me in the past, but might be AMDGPU-PRO&#039;s basis now, which lately works fine, and one can install only its OpenCL part... or is there a better way?&#160; All I found on this topic was old/outdated material for older Devuan and much older Debian.</p>]]></description>
