Unmet dependencies ubuntu 22.04 & amdgpu HIP support

Question

I have a ryzen pc with an AMD Radeon Vega card, running ubuntu 22.04LTS, and I'm trying to install the amdgpu-install_22.10.2.50102-1_all driver so that I can use Blender 3.2 and have HIP support. However, I'm having a terrible time, and all my efforts have been for nought.

When I run the command amdgpu-install -y --opencl=rocr

I get the following ouput:

linux-headers-5.15.0-40-generic is already the newest version (5.15.0-40.43).
linux-headers-5.15.0-40-generic set to manually installed.
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

I was under the impression that the driver was supported in Ubuntu 22.04LTS. I am new to Ubuntu so how do I get these installed if they're not installable, or is it all impossible?

Answer 1

Try:

amdgpu-install --usecase=opencl,graphics -y

The issue is that the default "usecase" includes hip, which isn't supported yet for 22.04 due to a python dependency issue. Installing only graphics (mesa) and opencl should be fine.

Answer 2

I have the same problem. Now I fixed.

check package files

dpkg -L amdgpu-install

here is key.

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/amdgpu.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rocm.list

there is an error/typo in these files.

Try changing from focal to jammy, as in "Jammy Jellyfish".

I installed successfully with below.

amdgpu-install --usecase=graphics,opencl --vulkan=amdvlk,pro

Answer 3

So, despite AMD releasing an official driver package for Ubuntu 22 they didn't actually make sure the dependencies were compatible. They are aware of this and have promised to fix it, you can follow that in these two issues, here and here.

Within one of these issue threads is the following workaround:

We are essentially going to download the rocm-llvm package, extract it, modify it, compile it again and then install it, fulfilling the dependencies the AMD Drivers need to install.

I didn't encounter the errors with libegl and libgbm1 so they might be related to something else or they may have been fixed by the latest amdgpu-install which I have: version 22.20.50200.

1. Open a terminal, create a new directory and go into it. mkdir temp cd temp

2. Download the rocm-llvm package apt download rocm-llvm. It's 695MB.

3. Extract it ar x rocm-llvm_14.0.0.22204.50200-65_amd64.deb

4. Extract control.tar.xz tar xf control.tar.xz

5. Open control in a text editor gedit control

6. Locate the line starting with Depends and replace it with this: Depends: python3, libc6, libstdc++6|libstdc++8, libstdc++-5-dev|libstdc++-7-dev|libstdc++-10-dev, libgcc-5-dev|libgcc-7-dev|libgcc-10-dev, rocm-core

7. Save the file and close the editor.

8. Rebuild control.tar.xz tar c postinst prerm control | xz -c > control.tar.xz

9. Rebuild the .deb file ar rcs rocm-llvm_14.0.0.22204.50200-65_amd64.deb debian-binary control.tar.xz data.tar.xz

10. Install new dependencies sudo apt-get install libstdc++-10-dev libgcc-10-dev

11. Install the new .deb file sudo dpkg -i rocm-llvm_14.0.0.22204.50200-65_amd64.deb

12. Install dependency for rocm sudo apt install rocm-core

13. Download the latest Ubuntu Driver installer wget https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/22.20/ubuntu/jammy/amdgpu-install_22.20.50200-1_all.deb

14. Install the latest Ubuntu Driver Installer. If it asks if you want to overwrite any sources files, you need to type Y so it will do this, if you've upgraded from 20.04 it is asking if you want to replace the old 20.04 sources with the new 22.04 versions.

15. Run the driver installer again: sudo amdgpu-install --opencl=rocr -y

If at the end of installation it says

Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
File: /var/lib/dkms/amdgpu/5.13.11.21.50-1384495/source/dkms.conf does not exist.
WARNING: amdgpu dkms failed for running kernel

Then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure amdgpu-dkms and it should resolve it.

Answer 4

I also ran into this issue after upgrading a machine to 22.04.1 LTS and using an older RX 580 GPU with kernel version 5.15.0-56. In case anyone out there is in my situation and comes here, as of this writing (Dec 2022), the following worked for me:

• Use the amdgpu-install version 22.40 from https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/22.40/ubuntu/jammy/amdgpu-install_5.4.50401-1_all.deb
• Install with the command sudo amdgpu-install --usecase=workstation -y --opencl=rocr --vulkan=pro --accept-eula --no-32
• Install the Mesa OpenCL shared library with sudo apt install -y mesa-opencl-icd

The -y and --accept-eula skips the EULA prompt and the apt prompt. --usecase=workstation, --opencl=rocr, and --vulkan=pro install options installs both graphics and OpenCL components, skipping the open-source vulkan. Finally, the --no-32 skips installing 32-bit components, which was also giving me issues on some attempts.

mesa-opencl-icd is required in order to get the library libMesaOpenCL.so.1 on my system. After installing this, I am able to see my GPU with clinfo -l:

$> sudo clinfo -l
Platform #0: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
Platform #1: Clover
 `-- Device #0: Radeon RX 580 Series (polaris10, LLVM 13.0.1, DRM 3.49, 5.15.0-56-generic)
Platform #2: Portable Computing Language
 `-- Device #0: pthread-Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 0 @ 2.60GHz

Answer 5

If you browse in here https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/ to the latest drivers the repos are no longer named incorrectly. You'll still get the dependcy error if you dont specify your use cases as others have said. So install the latest one from there (november 22 release at the time of writing this) and then run this you should get a working driver: amdgpu-install --usecase=graphics,opencl --vulkan=amdvlk,pro

Answer 6

I messed around for hours today following errors, found AMD Community page with same error and good answer, that AMD has updated install package, but its not on main page. https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/cannot-run-amdgpu-install-on-ubuntu-22-04-1/td-p/561053

https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/22.20.5/ubuntu/jammy/amdgpu-install_22.20.50205-1_all.deb

worked for me with: amdgpu-install --usecase=opencl,graphics -y
