Talk:OpenCL

Hi,

I would like to translate this page to Japanese. Could the editor request translation?

Word of warning for other users: it's not kidding about the risk of mixing and matching drivers.

Running things sometimes works, but usually dmesg fills up with the dying gurgles of a broken driver, X stops working, and the computer follows soon after.

Here's one I suffered earlier:

I've encountered other poor folks with similar experiences, and given something as simple as `clinfo` can cause it to detonate I don't think it's a hardware issue.

I'd really like to get OpenCL working, but unfortunately this is the only option that produces any working result (ROCm just won't run period, Clover is uselessly out of date) and it's so risky as to be unusable for the job. - Ant P. (talk) 03:09, 13 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Update: apparently it's kernel 5.5 to blame and it's being fixed. Looks like I just picked an unlucky time to try it. - Ant P. (talk) 18:41, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Does this issue still occurs 3 years later or is the fix functional? If the issue is still valid, open a Gentoo Bug. Someone may fix it (or not) but at least the problem is documented. A small note about this is the main article can be a valuable information the case the problem still occurs.
