    Yeah sorry, the Amd card itself works great with Ubuntu in compute tasks. The software DaVinci Resolve however is a red hat binary so you would need to be on Rhel or centOS to work with Linux.

      Nope. It was the AMD card (and associated drivers) that was the issue.

      You know how I know? Because I’m currently running Davinci Resolve just fine on Ubuntu, with an nvidia card.

      I’m telling you, absolutely nothing I tried could get GPU compute to work for AMD. Nothing I ever did could get ROCm working on AMD (and I did a lot of things trying to get it working), but cuda on nvidia worked instantly and automatically as soon as I installed the nvidia drivers.

        AMD video drivers are known to conflict with davinci resolve in Ubuntu. Thats why I said, to get it to work Natively on Linux you would need to switch to RHEL or CentOS.

          Well, I couldn’t get GPU compute on AMD to work with anything else, either. It’s not a Davinci Resolve specific issue.

          Or… I could switch to nvidia. Which I did. And it’s been working great.
