I'm currently trying to install AMD's OpenCL libs without replacing the opensource AMDGPU driver with the AMDGPU-PRO closed source driver, by following this instruction: If anyone has an AMD GPU like me and wishes to utilize its power for computing instead of just the CPU, OpenCL libs need to be installed.

This is still a million times better than burning Watts on bitcoin mining )Īnd yes, they do accept donations! And they do need them to help scale up server-side to reduce the current bottlenecks in distributing new workloads to contributing users.Īlso worth noting this will run as lowest priority task and can be paused whenever the user wants, so shouldn't be any issue installing on the beefy main gaming PC where it has a higher chance to run faster and at the same time more efficiently, even if you intend to use it frequently these days. some coments on the GoL post mention the energy caveat as well. True, power efficiency should be accounted for to some extent, but we're currently on a "getting results out as fast as possible even if not at peak efficiency" mode. They had about 30k contributors one week and jumped to 400k contributors the next week due to COVID, so they're warning folks that for now some holdups may happen. IMO, unless you have a high end GPU it's more efficient to directly donate to the project the extra money you would have to pay in your power bill when contributing with your old hardware. Your contribution may be pointless and you would be wasting energy. Oprindeligt skrevet af x_wing:Think twice before using old hardware. the increased interest does make them a big potential target. In any case, I always recommend scanning the installer files with online security tools before using it (since it's not on any distro's official repos), just to be sure it hasn't been tampered with. There is no mention of any breaches in the real software. Never follow links from emails, instead go directly to official website.

IMPORTANT: someone is distributing fake emails linking to a fake website with malicious software
So in case you are willing to also do some attribution, add Gaming on Linux's Team ID 245680. Joining a Team ID is optional and doesn't really affect in any way whatever useful processing will be done, but is a nice way to give some recognition to whoever brought you into the effort.
Some hints for linux setup on the GoL article, and here is the official setup page: Setting things up is not complicated but ensuring the software is able to use all available processing resources as best it can may take a little extra effort (eg: ensuring OpenCL and/or Cuda are available). It's even older inspiration is actually winding down this month and asking everyone to contribute to instead: Uncle Gaming on Linux wants is actually quite an old crowdsourcing effort, already, using a myriad of normal computers to 3d-model the variations in molecule shape over time, to help researchers gain insight into potential binding sites for drugs, etc.įor obvious reasons, they have been awful busy running models of COVID-19 proteins, and are trying to get as much help as possible to run those quickly:
