Folding Forum

For me amdgpu-pro isn't working on Ubuntu 20.04 with an RX Vega 64. But because I only need OpenCL, I'm running ROCm 3.3, wich is folding successfully on the GPU. I think ROCm OpenCl works on the 5700, but I haven't tested this myself.

This used to work for me with 19.10. However, I'm now running 20.04. This way I can install amdgpu-pro OpenCL, but when I restart the computer, it writes colored noise to the boot screen, and hangs. I've tried it a number of times, but it hangs every time. I can go to terminal mode with ctrl+alt+f4,...

I'm using an AMD Radeon RX 64, not an Nvidia GPU, but I had the same issue. Other OpenCL applications were working fine, but FaH is quite picky. darktable has an excellent explanation of what makes OpenCL work, and how it finds its components. It says amongst others things that libOpenCL.so "mu...

Frogging101, I've seen a number of install scripts, but your method looks quite interesting. I've tried these scripts, but none have worked for me so far on Ubuntu 19.10. That's why I've installed 18.04, you don't have to use a script. I was able to install OpenCL using the command 'amdgpu-pro-insta...

I caved, I admit it. I was running Ubuntu 19.10 with ROCm 2.10 OpenCL, but in the end I just couldn't get FAH to work on GPU WU's. Even when FAH started to recognise the GPU, and OpenCL, it stopped with bad WU's. So today I decided to try AMD's OpenCL. Unfortunately, that's next to impossible to get...

The GPU is detected, and FAH has downloaded a WU today. But then it started on it, stopped, and complained about a BAD_WORK_UNIT. That's another topic I guess.

People in this forum said to modify FAHClient (it's text). Open /etc/init.d/FAHClient, and change USER at the top of the file from fahclient to root. It seems to be a permission thing, this did the trick for me. FAHControl now says this: GPUs 1 GPU 0 Bus: 3 Slot: 0 Func: 0 AMD: 5 Vega 10 XL/XT [Rade...

Or maybe it's just FAHControl, I had quite a bit of trouble getting that installed... When I start FAHClient I get: 'OpenCL Device 0: Platform:0 Device:0 Bus:3 Slot:0 Compute:2.0 Driver:3019.0'. I'm not getting any WU's, but that's to be expected at the moment.

Huh, I tell a lie... Earlier it was finally working, but i just checked again, and it's back to 'Not detected: clGetDeviceIDs() returned -1'. And, yes, fahclient is a member of the video group...

I'm running Ubuntu 19.0 with an AMD RX Vega 64, and I have ROCm 2.10 OpenCL installed. That was working, I made sure of that before I started folding. FAHClient installed without problems, but it just wasn't detecting the GPU. I added the GPU manually, and FAH did detect it, but it couldn't find Ope...
