I use blender for cgi production and would love to see my AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT at the openCL tab.
My Gigabyte X570 mainboard with the Ryzen 9 3900X is usable and cycles rendering works fine. Beeing happy so far and I can work. Thats the good news.
Trying to get OpenCL working is another story. I tried to install the drivers months ago (20.45 was the last one I tried bevor I gave up ...) Now I thought it's time to give it a try again. So I want to install the drivers from amdgpu-pro-21.30-1290604-ubuntu-20.04.tar.xz on Ubuntu 20.04.3
I want to have OpenCL support and use it in blender, so I try to follow the manual at https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ to install. After every fail, I run the uninstall script to clean up and try again. But there seem to be no way to get the drivers installed. Not while I am using the default generic kernel 5.4.0.88.92 , not with the latest kernel 5.14.9-051409-generic, not when I try to install headless.... I tried almost every combination, the shortest is:
./amdgpu-install --opencl=rocr --headless
I hope to get just the opencl support, thats what I think I need, since the OpenGL drivers that comes with linux already work fine.
But there are these dependencies that don't get soved and I get the error:
Die folgenden Pakete haben unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten: (unresolved dependencies)
amdgpu-dkms : Hängt ab von: libc-dev oder
libc6-dev soll aber nicht installiert werden
E: Probleme können nicht korrigiert werden, Sie haben zurückgehaltene defekte Pakete.
When I try to install libc6-dev or libc-dev I get the error:
Die folgenden Pakete haben unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten: (unresolved dependencies)
libc6-dev : Hängt ab von: libc6 (= 2.31-0ubuntu9.2) aber 2.31-0ubuntu9.3 soll installiert werden
Were can I find documentation about the right environment and dependencies that are needed for the driver to be able to install them? I would set up a system according to your recommendation if I could find one and try again.
Thanks a lot for any advice,
best regards!
