(AMD A10-9700 APU) OpenCL > OpenCL subsystem isn't available

Hello ,

today i tried to install this software Svp4linux on devuan beowulf on pc with amd a10 apu (bristol ridge).

it seems the APU is not very good supported on Debian / Devuan, but maybe i just made an error during installation.

however, the program would not start and i get the following error

21:09:19.633 [I]: OS: Linux 4.19.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.146-1 (2020-09-17) x86_64

21:09:19.675 [I]: CPU: AMD A10-9700 RADEON R7, 10 COMPUTE CORES 4C+6G [base frequency 1540 MHz, 4 threads]

21:09:19.679 [I]: Memory:  15026  MB total,  14476 MB free

i have installed the firmware-amd-graphics and also firmware-xorg-video-ati or similar , as this was done during installation (went from ascii to beowulf).

If anyone know an help, please post.

thank you very much.

Thank you very much Rolfie,

this has been solved!

firmware-linux

Now the program starts!

Hello ,
i have now a newer System with Graphics card RX 7000 series.

Is there  asolution to install OpenCL for Devuan and Amdgpu already?
On Ubuntu it would function, but would much prefer using Devuan.
Thanks.

Opencl is currently enabled in rocm on debian, available as rocm-opencl-icd.

You would have to run (devuan) testing or unstable to use it.

thank you, i was able to install the OpenCL part of driver, in daedalus, it seem function;

however, the application, most probably need the vulkan part of amdgpu, and those seem not function with the opensource driver as exepected.

Hello ,

would this need that is still need to install "rocm" on Devuan 6.0?

there is official package amdgpu rocm from AMD, but this is installable on Devuan only via tricks.

https://www.amd.com/en/support/download … ivers.html

"rocm-opencl-icd" alone seem not suffice for proper OpenCL;
sorry if i got it wrong around.

I'm not really that familiar with opencl, but noticed this existed when looking at rocm.

Running clinfo with rocm-opencl-icd installed gives me:

What amd gpu are you using?

I wouldn't try mixing debian/devuan packages with the official rocm distribution for ubuntu...
