In my knowledge DaVinci is a good video editor. Some linux support it. My question, is it possible to install it on Solus? If so instruction please.
Does DaVinci Resolve work on Solus?
I tried installing it, it installed without any issues but after the quick setup nothing happens, it doesn't open up
As far as I know, even after installing it, one (and this is one among many) is that you would need a driver that enables openCL. If you're using nVidia, you download the proprietary drivers. If you use AMD, no luck, amd proprietary drivers is only available for Ubuntu derivative, RHEL, and CentOS, you could use ROCm but you'll (as far as you and I probably concerned) need to wait for the Fedora dev team to finish packaging it and then for the Solus dev team to package that for Solus. If you have Intel, I'm guessing that you should use beignet from the repo? I'm not sure tho.
shan9656 That's because Davinci Reolve doesn't have the proper dependencies to be able to run in Solus. It would need to be packaged for Solus to do that. This is not just a problem with Solus, even Ubuntu and its derivative would need to convert the .sh file to a .deb file and even then there's a chance that it wouldn't work.
Oh ok. Thank you for explaining
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.
This is what it shows when I run DaVinci Resolve from the terminal

rockycse21 It's in the repo. It's the intel iGPU drivers.
This is the crash report log

Fatih19 Thanks. I didn't know that before.
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.
