Basically title. I have a 7600(x)(t) 8G. I want drivers with opencl for hashcat. I know the proprietary ones work, but they are a ludicrously massive PITA. I am willing to use almost any distro to make this work (not Ubuntu, and not one of those random newer ones). I really hope I don’t have to use the proprietary drivers.

Edit: found a good enough solution. I listed the card on ebay and will replace it with an intel arc soon.

    Oh damn, can you send me a link to that? I’ll also try Hashcat + its benchmark when I get the chance.

    Reaching out to a friend who has some familiarity with HC in the mean time.

        The OpenCL benchmark for me worked without any issues.

        The Hashcat benchmark threw the same errors as you’d seen until I manually specified my device (my friend was able to point me in the right direction here).

        You can enumerate your OpenCL device (i.e. your GPU) with something like clinfo, rocm-clinfo.

        I had to run Hashcat’s benchmark like so: hashcat -b -d 2 where 2 is my RX 6800XT

        Hope this helps

          I did notice it was the wrong device, however when I specify it crashes the whole os with some artifacting. I may look into other values for that environment variable tomorrow. I also might try rusticl.
