Hi,  
Cant start DR even openCL is already installed!

```auto
"/opt/resolve/bin/resolve: error while loading shared libraries: libOpenCL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

```

GPU: RadeonRX 570 (standard driver with the kernel)

Regards

Now the newest driver from AMD webside for REHL is installed and can start DR, but doesn’t recognize the GPU as you see:

AFAIK Resolve works best with Nvidia Cards. Using AMD is not supported. Best you start resolve from the command line and check the terminal output.

If you want to install the serial number for the resolve studio version you need to run it the first time as root.

according to the “DaVinci Resolve 19.0.3” article found on [Support Center | Blackmagic Design](https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/davinci-resolve-and-fusion) it could work. Does your machine fulfill the specs ?

```auto
Minimum system requirements for Linux

    Rocky Linux 8.6.
    32 GB of system memory.
    For monitoring, Blackmagic Design Desktop Video 12.9 or later.
    Discrete GPU with at least 4 GB of VRAM.
    GPU which supports OpenCL 1.2 or CUDA 12.
    AMD official drivers from your GPU manufacturer.
    NVIDIA Studio driver 550.40.07 or newer.

```

Have more than the system requirement, and the error is about something missing not a hardware!

Looking at [https://interfacinglinux.com/2024/01/08/davinci-resolve-on-linux-with-amd-gpu/](https://interfacinglinux.com/2024/01/08/davinci-resolve-on-linux-with-amd-gpu/)

did you disable wayland in `/etc/gdm3/custom.conf` and did you run following command to install the amd driver?

```auto
amdgpu-install --vulkan=pro --opencl=rocr,legacy

```
