I think it was the package firmware-amd-graphics (not totally sure but
relatively), the package libhsa-runtime64-1 is not changed since
2024-08-26.
And this card still works "some" weeks ago.
Thanks. I have an XFX Radeon RX 570 (8GB) available to me. I'll try to
reproduce and investigate this bug on my test bench.
Ok. I'm thinking about buying a new card.
What do you think, will this card be a good (better/usable) choice:
Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 7600 XT OC, 16GB GDDR6
Or will an Intel card (I'm not a player and need it only for opencl) a
better choice (I don't like Nvidia,-)?
My dayjob is working at AMD, so I'm not sure I can give unbiased advice.
The AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE (Navi 31) is the cheapest RDNA 3 GPU that is
listed on AMD's official support list for ROCm on Linux [1]. The AMD
Radeon RX 7800 XT (Navi 32) may be a reasonable alternative. The RX 7800
XT is not officially supported on Linux, but it is officially supported
on Windows [2] and it may benefit from work done for the AMD Radeon PRO
V710 (Navi 32), which is officially supported on Linux.
I personally own a PowerColor Hellhound AMD Radeon RX 7600XT (Navi 33)
that I purchased for testing software on Debian. The RX 7600 XT is
officially supported by AMD on Windows, but it is not officially
supported on Linux (nor are there any other Navi 33 GPUs that have
official support on Linux). The ROCm math libraries distributed by AMD
are built for Navi 33 despite that lack of official support, but I don't
know if that extends to all AI libraries and frameworks.
It's perhaps also worth noting that RDNA 4 is just around the corner
[3]. Though, it may be some time before support for RDNA 4 hardware is
available in Debian.
