I have been running Stable Diffusion in a separate partition with Ubuntu 22.04 because my OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installation does not support the ROCm kernels out of the box. I have seen some sporadic attempts on the web from folks looking to get something running on their rolling release distros, like the Arch Linux community.
Just wanna know if anyone else around here has tried something that works with their favourite rolling-release distros?
You can get it to work on arch, rocm is in the repos.
I suggest you use a container if you proceed though.
Thanks for the suggestion. The problem is getting the ROCm kernels running. I looked into containers for ROCm support and unsurprisingly, my host OS needs it first.
I think you are misunderstanding something, you don’t need a rocm kernel. What you need is the rocm-opencl-runtime.
This video is a year old, but should be enough to get you started: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_CgaHyA_n4
Oh neat. Thanks for the clarification. Maybe that’s all I need to do to patch my TW system to get it working!
