From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How and with what card? I have a XFX RX590 and I just gave up on acceleration as it was slow even after I initially set it up.

I use an 6900 XT and run llama.cpp and ComfyUI inside of Docker containers. I don't think the RX590 is officially supported by ROCm, there's an environment variable you can set to enable support for unsupported GPUs but I'm not sure how well it works.

AMD provides the handy rocm/dev-ubuntu-22.04:5.7-complete image which is absolutely massive in size but comes with everything needed to run ROCm without dependency hell on the host. I just build a llama.cpp and ComfyUI container on top of that and run it.

That's good to know
