8 months ago To be able to use OpenCL you need to install amdgpu-pro driver. You can find it here: https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers In former times I had AMD gpu and it was painful. The driver worked only with Ubuntu, so I couldn't use my favorite Debian. I don't know if this driver is prepared for Arch Linux.

7 months ago Just as a viable option that has worked very well for me it is possible to use rusticl to run OpenCL, avoiding the need to use the -pro driver.
As you have a single AMD GPU you should be able to run with environment variable RUSTICL_ENABLE=radeonsi:0 and select rusticl from the devices list in Mandelbulber.
I've edited my .desktop file so I don't have to think about it.

7 months ago Thank you for your reply. I'm having some trouble compiling mesa-rusticl-git but as soon as I can, I'll try this solution and report if it works.
Turns out the AUR packages are quite out-of-date. I downloaded the latest AppImage release and everything is working fine.
System information (version)
Detailed description
The application immediately crashes whenever I attempt to set the "OpenCL enable..." toggle in File> Program Preferences> OpenCL (GPU).
Steps to reproduce
Attempt to set the toggle above at any moment after having launched the application, regardless of what else was or wasn't done before.
