Bazzite is a ublue (Universal Blue) fork of the Fedora Kinoite (KDE) or Fedora Silverblue (Gnome) rpm-ostree Linux distributions; ublue-os/bazzite//Containerfile : https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/blob/main/Containe

rfile#... has, in addition to fan and power controls, automatic updates on desktop, supergfxctl, system76-scheduler, and an fsync kernel: rpm-ostree install rocm-hip \ rocm-opencl \ rocm-clinfo But it's not `rpm-ostree install --apply-live` because its a Containerfile. To install a ublue-os distro, you install any of the Fedora ostree distros: {Silverblue, Kinoite, Sway Atomic, or Budgie Atomic} from e.g. a USB stick and then `rpm-ostree rebase <OCI_host_image_url>`: rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite:stable rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia:stable rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed: ublue-os/config//build/ublue-os-just/40-nvidia.just defines the `ujust configure-nvidia` and `ujust toggle-nvk` commands: https://github.com/ublue-os/config/blob/main/build/ublue-os-...

And Fedora supports OCI containers as host images and also podman container images with just systemd to respawn one or a pod of containers.

In AMD funded a drop-in CUDA implementation built on ROCm: It's now open-source

t-vi·Oct 28, 2020

I think PyTorch support is decent, I use it on my Radeon VII a lot. - You can compile on https://lernapparat.de/pytorch-rocm/ (disclaimer my own link) - Arch has support out of the box: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pytorch-rocm/ - AMD also has a ROCm docker with PyTorch (https://rocmdocs.amd.com/en/latest/Deep_learning/Deep-learni...) - If you know the secret URL (which you can infer from the other URLs on the front page), there are also test wheels for rocm3.8. So AMD got a lot of heat for not supporting Navi (RDNA) with ROCm, but it seems that they are weeding out the things keeping people from running it ( https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/pytorch/issues/718 and the links in that look like gfx10 is almost there for rocBlas and MIOpen). We'll see what ROCm 3.9 will bring and what the state of big navi is.

Pretty bad. There is pytorch for rocm (AMD's CUDA emulation) but I don't think anyone actually uses it. https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/pytorch/issues I don't think you'll be doing much local ML work on this laptop
