Run the davinci resolve from terminal. Then if it's complain about missing dependencies, install it from SC

    Well, it's better to be optimistic. If you manage to run the software, and give the community your steps to run the software; you're giving back to the community.

    shan9656 It means it's possible to install DaVinci Resolve. That's good. Now maybe some one provide us the process to help us to run it. Fatih19 What is this "beignet"?


          This is what it shows when I run DaVinci Resolve from the terminal

          shan9656 Not necessarily. It enables openCL for your iGPU on intel but Resolve needs many more things to work.

            I successfully ran DaVinci Resolve for almost a year on Solus with an Nvidia GTX 970, with proprietary drivers. I had to manually install some dependencies from the repos if I remember correctly though, but everything was there. I can try to check what those were when I get home.

              Fatih19 We don't need to wait for Fedora. It's not as though we copy other distros for packaging. I have made some progress on the side with building ROCm. I just don't have time to finish it right now. I'm also starting to think that Clover in Mesa might be a better route forward.

                  arkhenius What dependencies did you install? Might be helpful for other people. So, after you installed the dependencies and the drivers, you ran the downloaded file and then it worked?

                    DataDrake and Whole Solus team , Thanks. Whole linux system missing a good video editing software. If this software come to Solus (linux), It would be very helpful for content creators. I do respect native video editors from software center.

                      DataDrake It would be great getting ROCm packaged in Solus. Did you make any progress on this ? I read from time to time the discussions on the ROCm github repository and it seems to be that it is quite a challenge. Hardcoded paths in the source code and incorrect usage of cmake.

                        I can install DaVinci Resolve 16.1.2 easily, but when I run the application it doesn't detect my GPU (GTX 1050). I' m using nVidia proprietary drivers (440I remember that I did manage to run the software a while ago, but I'm unsure if it was in Solus or in Linux Mint (used to be a Mint user, migrated to Solus).
                        Anybody got any ideas why this problem could happen? The install works flawlessly, but it doesn't recognize my GPU...
