Does DaVinci Resolve work on Solus?

Fatih19 Does installing that work?

Fatih19

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.

shan9656

arkhenius That would be really helpful.

Fatih19

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?

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.

Fatih19

DataDrake That's great if you can make it work, because that's really what holding many people back.

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...

Justin

AlienTux You got past the quick setup?

AlienTux

Justin I believe I did, yes. The problem arose when trying to run the program if I remember correctly.

TarekKrosh

ocl-icd in solus rep for me at least it fixed the problem

I havent been Happy with Linux video editors on Intel the quicksync drivers Lack apparently, Nowdays quicksync is only way to do it on intel.(think its a lack on inteIs and not linux from what I read) dont know about the other processors. I tried shotcut appiamage on solus wasnt happy runs great in winders with quicksync I7. If linux ever gets quicksync will be switching.

Axios If you are experimenting with video editors you can try Blender. I found it was nearly required that you follow along with a video tutorial to start. Also, when looking for tutorial videos, be sure they use Blender 2.8+. There was a big change around 2.8.

Johandherdt

sorry to necro but does someone know if davinci resolve works with solus yet? I'm looking to install solus and replace my ubuntu installation but I regurlary edit too.

davidjharder

Johandherdt AMD cards definitely still do not work with Resolve.
Resolve has not been packaged for Solus in the intervening months, so if it was a dependency issue stopping Nvidia & Intel graphics from working there would be no change: you would have to figure out which dependencies you need.

George

Johandherdt yep, Ryzen 5 3600, 12 GB RAM, GTX1050, DaVinci is working. Needed ocl-icd

vinceff

Yes i confirm davinci resolve 17 works on solus with ocl-icd

George

vinceff nvidia?
