ADLSDK fails #22

Closed nachitox closed 4 years ago

nachitox commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to read voltages but can't make it work.

I compiled it with HAVE_ADLSDK = 1 pointing ADLSDKDIR to the right dir and setting LIBDIRS to the Ubuntu line. I have installed Radeon™ Software for Linux® Driver 17.50

I don't know why but if (handle.open()) fails.

The ADLSDK requires old AMD Catalyst drivers published before 2016 (AMD Catalyst 15.XX or earlier). AMDGPU-PRO (your AMD linux driver is very likely AMDGPU-PRO driver) and AMDGPU does not deliver needed ADL, thus AMDCOVC uses other way to read and write parameters. AMDGPU-PRO does not give (officially) and any way to set GPU voltage.

I understand. Thank you.
