Hello guys to my first guide on how to install ai libaries on a radeon 780m (this guide is also for other gfx110X gpus)
REQUIREMENTS
a gfx110X combabtible gpu
16GB is mandatory or above for bigger model i know ram is very pricey
Fedora or any distros but i prefer fedora or use windows(NO TRITON OR JAX SUPPORT)
Python (preferably a newer version) python only for windows
Good internet I MEAN IT the packages are so big because they include all of rocm
ALSO GO IN YOUR BIOS AND SET THE UMA BUFFER TO HALF YOUR RAM
ON WINDOWS PLEASE USE CMD
Hip sdk if on windows HIP SDK
Time i also mean it
basic terminal knowledge and python knowledge
GUIDE
ok first things first the commands are gonna be split one for windows one for linux indicated by "w" for windows and "l" for linux
"l"
lspci | grep -i "VGA\|Display\|Radeon"
it should return something like HawkPoint1 or similair for radeon 780m
"l"
ls /dev/dri/
should say card1 renderD128 or similair
"l"
groups | grep -E "render|video"
should return render and video if not do sudo
usermod -aG render,video $USER
LOG OUT AND LOG IN AGAIN
ok now for the venv
_**
CRUCIAL: On Linux, never install these ROCm wheels globally. By using a venv, we create a sandboxed environment where the 'heavy' ROCm libraries live peacefully without conflicting with your system's desktop drivers.
**_
create the venv
"l"
python3 -m venv venv
"w"
python -m venv venv
activate it
"l"
source venv/bin/activate
"w"
.\venv\Scripts\activate
yay we got the venv if you got here GOOD JOB
NOW for the giant package installation
NOTE PLEASE HAVE MORE THAN 5 GB OF FREE SPACE AND IF IT LOOOKS FROZEN JUST WAIT
"l"
python3 -m pip install apex filelock fsspec jax-rocm7-pjrt jax-rocm7-plugin jaxlib jinja2 markupsafe mpmath networkx numpy pillow rocm rocm-profiler rocm-sdk-core rocm-sdk-devel rocm-sdk-libraries-gfx110x-all setuptools sympy torch torchaudio torchvision triton typing-extensions --index-url https://rocm.nightlies.amd.com/v2/gfx110X-all/ --resume-retries 0
"w"
python -m pip install filelock fsspec jinja2 markupsafe mpmath networkx numpy pillow setuptools sympy torch torchaudio torchvision typing-extensions rocm-sdk-libraries-gfx110x-all --index-url https://rocm.nightlies.amd.com/v2/gfx110X-all/ --resume-retries 0
YAY IF those finished you did the longest step i wnat to just remind here DONT USE THE LINUX COMMANDS ON WINDOWS because windows doesnt have triton or flax support
