I've tried to install opencl drivers from the arch OpenCL page (new user can't post direct links)

I've installed
  • opencl-mesa
    opencl-amd
Tried to install 'opencl-amdgpu-pro-orca' but I get an error:

Code: Select all

Error: Failed to commit transaction:
conflicting files:
opencl-amdgpu-pro-orca: /etc/OpenCL/vendors/amdocl-orca64.icd already exists in filesystem
Tried to install 'rocm-opencl-runtime' but I get depdency errors, am currently trying to resolve those.

Can anyone help, is there anything else I can try?

Another person posted an How-To on AMD drivers for Linux - viewtopic.php?f=81&t=33353&p=318278&hilit=AMD+Linux+install#p318278. Perhaps that can give you some pointers. There are some other posts on doing this, it may take a little searching to find them among all of the new topics and posts.
