Hello,

first of all, I am a newcomer, therefore pls take into account I have still to learn a lot. I am using blender and need CLI support for this software to work well. The software itself does not find compatible GPU.

clinfo gives me "number of platforms 0" from this I suppose CLI is not installed correctly, am I right on this ?

The notebook is from TUXEDO, brand new model.

sudo lshw -C display gives me: *-display

What do I need to do in order to make work CLI on my processor ?

Thank you very much for your help on this

kindest regards

Can you please share the graphics driver information?

As I can see, the below driver page lists windows driver only for this product.

Thanks.

Thanks for the above information. The "amdgpu" is an open-source base kernel driver which itself does not provide any OpenCL support. So, which driver/package are you using for the OpenCL support?

Please note:

On Linux, we have two drivers/packages that provide OpenCL support - 1) AMDGPU-Pro and 2) ROCm. However, as per the product compatibility list, it looks like this gpu is not currently supported by these drivers. For more information, please find the below links.

AMDGPU-Pro: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-amdgpu-unified-linux-21-30

ROCm: https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm

Thanks.

Any good news? I have a Huawei Laptop and it is equipped with "AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics Renoir GPU".

I am currently unable to use dual screen over HDMI.

I am looking for the solutions for this issue.

Thanks in advance for any help.

As per the below driver page, it looks like windows graphics driver is only available at this moment.
