How's 9070XT working with Linux?

.

Oh BTW as for my original query in this thread seems 9070xt works well enough for desktop ui non gaming usage with ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS based distros like elementary os and kde neon. So the kernel 6.14 and MESA etc must be good enough.

Definitely not getting the same on my setup maybe 8700K is lagging behind, I will need to upgrade that soon enough.

Ah so the reason why (for the gpt-oss model at least) ROCm isn’t working on LMStudio is the latter’s runtime version for ROCm support is still 1.43.1 while the others like Vulkan and CPU/CUDA etc are on 1.44.0 so until llama.cpp library updates it, can’t run it. That’s why those errors popping up when trying to load the gpt-oss-20b it seems. Found this info out by visiting the LMStudio Discord server in the rocm-tech-preview channel where this was mentioned.

So, next I’ll try ollama but that too uses llama.cpp backend I believe so may have the same issue until it’s fixed/updated.
