Well, Microsoft is getting ready to annoy its faithful Windows 10 user base with yet another prompt. This time, Microsoft wants Windows 10 users to switch from using a local account to their online Microsoft account.

If only AMD would get their asses to release a stable and functional ROCM implementation, I could migrate 100% to Linux.

have you tried the rocm docker containers that amd makes for your needs? it pretty much makes installing rocm on the base OS unneeded for me. https://hub.docker.com/u/rocm https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm-docker

AFAIK, cards older than GFX1030 require manual setup, including building parts of ROCM with modified flags, since v5.1

There is one extra step. I have an 6700xt, and with the docker containers, you just have to pass the environment variable HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0 to allow that card to work. For cards other than 6000 series, you would need to look up the version to pass for your generation.

Here's an example compose file that I use for ollama that runs ai models on my 6700xt.

version: '3'
services:
  ollama:
    image: ollama/ollama:rocm
    container_name: ollama
    devices:
      - /dev/kfd:/dev/kfd
      - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
    group_add:
      - video
    ports:
      - "11434:11434"
    environment:
      - HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
    volumes:
      - ollama_data:/root/.ollama

volumes:
