I have created four new packages for the ROCm technology preview release stream - currently ROCm 7.10.0. I assume with time they will be able (and forced) to replace the current opencl-amd-dev PKGBUILD.

Latest release: 7.2.1.

This package includes OpenCL and HIP runtime only.

For the full ROCm experience you need to install opencl-amd-dev which includes extra runtime and developer packages.

Note for anyone who has a Polaris GPU (Radeon RX 5xx) debugging issues with this package; Packages that use OpenCL like clinfo or davinci-resolve-studio will need you to downgrade opencl-amd to 1:5.7.1-1 as well as amdgpu-pro-oglp to 23.10_1620044-1 to avoid coredumps & segfaults.

DVR would not open unless these 2 packages were downgraded (along with their dependencies). Had to figure it out the hard way after hours using valgrind and rebooting over and over. Hopefully someone else will not have to pull their hair out trying to resolve their issue.

Thank you! DaVinci Resolve is working now.

This is the first time I was thinking to skip a version for performance reasons. It looks like 7.2.0 is still king.

@davey6693 Thanks, I ran into this and reverted to 7.1.1-1 but still get segfaults.

@davey6693 yes, I also had that problem, and is fixed after reverting back to 7.1.1-1. Thanks :)

I have a 7900XTX, latest mesa and opencl-amd and had an instant core dump that I spent a while trying to figure out when launching DaVinci Resolve . I didn't even make it to the splash screen. The DR debug output was short and not super-helpful other than indicating it was having a problem in GPUDetect (note not my exact output, but the gist is the same):

When I reverted to opencl-amd 1:7.1.1-1 it fixed the problem. Not sure if that's a one-off or if it will help others.

I also want to emphasize my appreciation for the package maintainer. It works very well and I've used it countless times to install older versions for older cards as well.

Sometimes the downloads become unavailable but that is not something easily solved.

I am also very appreciative for the interaction on this AUR both from maintainer and community, its been great!

NIICKTCHUNS commented on 2026-02-03 22:06 (UTC)

Yeah, I actually did this right after I sent the comment, I actually had forgot that I could do this and remembered right after lol. Anyways thanks for the reply, I think its useful to have this tip here for maybe newcomers that are facing a similar problem

And I indeed reported this issue over BMD forums, lets see if the next update fix it o/

luciddream commented on 2026-02-03 21:55 (UTC)

Hi NIICKTCHUNS, you can always build the previous versions yourself - as long as the packages are still on the AMD website. Click view changes, select the version you want, click Download. Then extract the zip and use makepkg and finally, pacman -U file.pkg.tar.zst to install the previous version.

I would also suggest to follow the Davinci forum for updates but, I can see you are already doing so! :) Hopefully they give more love to Linux builds.

NIICKTCHUNS commented on 2026-02-03 21:38 (UTC)

Thanks for all the work you put into this package, I have a question, can you do another package for the previous version? DaVinci Resolve for some reason crashes with this version

luciddream commented on 2026-01-22 20:24 (UTC)

Hi all, I just made a new release 7.2.0. It's way faster than anything I've ever seen from ROCm so far. I made the release while very tired so please check if it's working for you :)

p.s I believe in 1-2 weeks a preview of 7.11 will also be available for the other packages.
