Have you tried installing rocm? Last I checked two months ago you had to run a Ubuntu 16.04 container on Ubuntu 18.04 because the amd drivers were only compiled for bionic and the rocm software was only compiled for xenial.
- melbourne_mat 7y agoI've been running rocm directly on Ubuntu 19.04 for a while now. I didn't have to build from source either. It's odd that they haven't updated their docs about this yet.
- dnautics 7y agoCool, thanks!! I'll take a look at it
- danieldk 7y agoWe have installed ROCm on vanilla Ubuntu 18.04. Though I use the libraries through Nix with the nixos-rocm repo: https://github.com/nixos-rocm/nixos-rocm https://github.com/nixos-rocm/nixos-rocm The last time we purchased GPUs, we bought two Radeon VIIs besides RTX 5000s. For training transformers in Tensorflow and PyTorch, they were a steal, because the training is only marginally slower than the RTXes at a fraction of the price. For LSTMs, we have found performance regressions compared to NVIDIA, but it's largely because it was hard to hit the optimized MIOpen code paths.
