I know SLED is commercial and Leap is community OS, but I don’t know waht is the actual difference in kernel/driver/core components packaging that makes amdgpu-pro driver working only in SLED, but not in Leap. I mean, RHEL driver works in CentOS, so what is the reason we don’t have official driver for Leap
I think this is because CentOS is a literal clone of RHEL just like scientific Linux and Oracle Linux. Even RHEL bugs are reproduced in CentOS so that it behaves the same way. It’s not the case though for opsenSUSE and SLED. Also I think it’s not the case for Fedora. I think RHEL driver wouldn’t work with Fedora.
Hi
Seems you only need the openCL part, if you run;
./amdgpu-install --opencl=legacy --headless
It should add the opencl-orca-amdgpu-pro-icd, amdgpu-core and amdgpu-pro-core rpms, else just manually install those three.
Thanks it lead me to right path, having the same problem for my rx.
Cannot install contacted AMD still waiting for an answer,

Unfortunately a disappointing answer form AMD;
*Dear Anton,
Your service request : SR #{ticketno:[8200842059]} has been reviewed and updated.
Response and Service Request History:
Thank you for the response.
After discussing this internally, I see that driver support is available only for SLES/SLED 15 and might not support for OpenSuse 15.
I request you to check with OpenSUSE community forum for assistance on this.
Thank you for contacting AMD.
In order to update this service request, please respond, leaving the service request reference intact.
Best regards,

Hi
Like I indicated, just manually install the three rpms (for openCL
support for the oss amdgpu driver), that’s all that’s needed not the
whole stack.
Else go through and tweak the script to recognize the Leap name/ID.

Ok could not select so I probably first have to add the amdgpu repository
Thanks

Hi
Nope, just extract the tarball and as root user cd into the x86_64 directory and zypper in the three rpm’s (use the full rpm name) and you should be good to go. Also install clinfo package so can check it’s working.
Thank you, it will be of great help. Regards
add the opencl-orca-amdgpu-pro-icd, amdgpu-core and amdgpu-pro-core rpms,
Need amdgpu-pro-core
Problem: nothing provides amdgpu-pro-core needed by opencl-orca-amdgpu-pro-icd-18.40-673869.x86_64
Solution 1: do not install opencl-orca-amdgpu-pro-icd-18.40-673869.x86_64
Solution 2: break opencl-orca-amdgpu-pro-icd-18.40-673869.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

first…

Done but still cannot get openCL working cannot choose opencl or rmm gpu in blender 2 79b
Done still cannot get openCL working need this for using blender 2.79b or 2.8
Hi
Think you might need to stick with nvidia then…
This is what I see as a test on SLES 15;
./amdgpu-install -opencl=legacy --headless
[amdgpu-pro-local]
Name=AMD amdgpu Pro local repository
baseurl=file:///var/opt/amdgpu-pro-local
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

The R4 on this system is not supported AFAIK, likewise my other AMD apu’s…
Did you test it with blender 2.79b
Can you choose openCL gpu.
I guess its indeed better to stick with nvidia.
Hi
No, since I have no AMD gpu systems supporting the amdgpu-pro…
Think I have to stick with Nvidia could not get openCL working for Blender 2.79b or 2.8.
Installed Ubuntu Mate 18.04 with the AMDGPU-pro driver: $ ./amdgpu-pro-install --opencl=legacy,pal --headless
Now opencl support works and blender 2.79 b and 2.8 found the gpu.
Sorry for switching to Ubuntu Mate couldn’t get it work for opensuse leap 15
Don’t be sorry. Use whatever works for you. I’m glad you got it working on Ubuntu.
