DaVinci Resolve 16 doesn't work on Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS

  • 772

My work PC has an Intel HD Graphics 5500, it is a Lenovo t450.

DaVinci Resolve 16 doesn't work on it. I'm using Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS. I've tried to install makeresolvedeb, but it still doesn't work and shows me this message:

DaVinci Resolve could not find any OpenCL capable GPUs. Would you like to review and update your DaVinci Resolve Hardware Configuration?

Any help?

  1. Now I would like to post this as a comment but I can't yet... Here are some steps that you can start with:

    • Do you have libOpenCL.so installed and available to the app? see if there's anything missing in ldd /opt/resolve/bin/resolve | grep OpenCL
    • If it is not installed, you might want to try installing ocl-icd-opencl-dev, as described here: How to install libOpenCL.so on ubuntu, since this package is also listed as a prerequisite for installing davinci resolve in this article: https://www.fosslinux.com/24381/how-to-install-davinci-resolve-on-ubuntu.htm
    • Make sure libOpenCL.so is in your ldconfig cache: ldconfig -p | grep OpenCL, if not, update it with ldconfig, then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure davinci-resolve

    If that doesn't help, this article (where I also found most of the other information) lists some more things you can try: https://bashbaug.github.io/opencl/2019/07/06/OpenCL-On-Linux.html (see section "Troubleshooting OpenCL on Linux")
