Note for anyone who has a Polaris GPU (Radeon RX 5xx) debugging issues with this package; Packages that use OpenCL like clinfo or davinci-resolve-studio will need you to downgrade opencl-amd to 1:5.7.1-1 as well as amdgpu-pro-oglp to 23.10_1620044-1 to avoid coredumps & segfaults.

DVR would not open unless these 2 packages were downgraded (along with their dependencies). Had to figure it out the hard way after hours using valgrind and rebooting over and over. Hopefully someone else will not have to pull their hair out trying to resolve their issue.

Current release is for ROCm 6.3.2 opencl-amd package includes only OpenCL / HIP runtime. You also need to use opencl-amd-dev package for ROCm LLVM compiler, OpenCL and HIP SDK. Please relog / reboot after installing so your PATH gets updated

There are now official packages available: rocm-opencl-sdk for OpenCL and rocm-hip-sdk for HIP - You might have better luck with these packages depending on your GPU.

@sperg512 Thats is true, with Nvidia you can't use recent kernels, not realtime kernel either, you must use only distro kernel and nvidia packages from distros.

I used to had a nvidia gxt 550ti for almost 9 years (with ubuntu, debian, manjaro). and I never had a problem IF and only IF used distro packages.

I have now a AMD RX 5500 XT and I can install any kernel, a nice boot image, 3d, vulkan, etc. Out the box. But if we need some propietary stuff.... well here we are :)

apaz commented on 2021-02-02 14:40 (UTC)

@Kode54
I don't recommend switching cards just yet. My experience with the 5700xt is it took a year for the drivers to be stable enough for desktop use. Now it seems that they are also working on openCL and deep learning, but I don't think there will be something stable and complete before another year. In any case I don't recommend the RDNA series because it will be neglected in favor of RDNA2 and Vega. Better to try to get Polaris running and wait for the change.

@recompiler
Opencl-amd and Blender stable work for me without problems!

Recompiler commented on 2021-02-02 13:33 (UTC)

@kode54 Keep in mind you need to be using the git version of Blender if you're testing OpenCL rendering. The stable version has yet to be patched.

aaaaand here starts the inevitable argument about Nvidia vs. AMD

All of my friends who use Nvidia have had a load of problems on recent kernels, from X not starting to it straight up not working (remember the kernel 5.9 stuff? lol), if they're apparently not that bad then I guess my friends are just dumb

Enverex commented on 2021-02-02 12:39 (UTC)

don'tgo the Nvidia route though, because Nvidia doesn't know how to make a functioning Linux driver (even less than AMD lol)

Absolute nonsense, what's more ironic is that you're claiming that on a the thread about actual, literal AMD driver issues.

sperg512 commented on 2021-02-02 12:37 (UTC)

@kode54 you can grab a 5500XT for around $200-250, or if you're willing to pay more you can get a 6800 for about $570, those are my recommendations

don'tgo the Nvidia route though, because Nvidia doesn't know how to make a functioning Linux driver (even less than AMD lol)

Asus ROG Strix RX 480 O8G, does not work with any known OpenCL driver for every purpose.

19.50 sort of works with heavy Blender renders, but nothing else useful. Latest just crashes Blender.

Mesa Clover driver crashes the entire desktop session, producing garbage screens with nothing but the garbage'd cursor and two alternating pages of garbage screen contents. Eventually crashes back to GDM, then manages to log back in again.

Maybe it's time for me to buy a new GPU and replace this one, but with what? Nothing else is guaranteed to work, either. Except maybe Nvidia, but then I have to discard my macOS installation.

@Ashark ok will do when home

@232.7celsius good to hear! Thanks for letting us know that it does work and actually might just be an upstream issue, I was scared for a while that it was a packaging issue

@luciddream, Ups, i'm sorrry.

The gpu is PowerColor AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT OC 8GB GDDR6.

Main application is blender renders and foldingathome client. Both working finally

Best!
