## TL;DR
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Install.
|
|
flatpak install 'edu.berkeley.BOINC'
|
|
sudo zypper install 'boinc-client' 'boinc-manager'
|
|
```
|
|

## Use the GPU for computation

|
|
Also see [AMD Linux drivers] and [Radeon™ Software for Linux® Installation].
|
|
|
|
The BOINC client seems to need to be added to the `video` group to be able to use the drivers correctly - this is something I still need to check.
|
|
|
|
### On OpenSUSE
|
|
|
|
Install the `amdgpu-install` package from [AMD's Linux drivers][amd linux drivers] page, then execute it.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Previous versions of the package (like the one in the official documentation
|
|
# at the time of writing) made DKMS fail.
|
|
sudo zypper install 'https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/22.20.3/sle/15.4/amdgpu-install-22.20.50203-1.noarch.rpm'
|
|
sudo amdgpu-install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At the next restart of the boinc-client, something similar to this line should appear in the client's logs:
|
|
|
|
