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.
Well I tried an opencl benchmark I found, and my computer has fuckied a major wucky…
Edit: reboot fixed it but it seems opencl is super unstable on here. I ran hashcat again, this time with --force, and found that it did nothing, then there were weird colors, then plasmashell crashed. Luckily plasmashell has good crash handling and it was able to go back up so I could see that hashcat reported something about gpu hang being the reason for the crash.
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.

cheers, will give that a look
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 2where 2 is my RX 6800XTHope 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.
