RL10 AI Support

Rocky Linux Help & Support
1

Hello,

I have read rl10 supports AI. More specifically does it support the Ultra 9 285’s Integrated Neural Processing Unit? Intel’s support website offers a driver for Win11. I didn’t see anything for Linux. Is it required? If so, when and where is it available?

Thanks in advance for addressing my questions,
Dave

I don’t know if this helps, but the intel website points to their github at GitHub - intel/linux-npu-driver: Intel® NPU (Neural Processing Unit) Driver

On that web page, the introduction says this: “This repository contains driver for Intel® NPU device. Intel® NPU device is an AI inference accelerator integrated with Intel client CPUs, starting from Intel® Core™ Ultra generation of CPUs (formerly known as Meteor Lake). It enables energy-efficient execution of artificial neural network tasks. To make sure that your system has an NPU available, please follow the steps.
The full device name is Neural Processing Unit, but the Linux kernel driver uses the older name - Versatile Processing Unit (VPU).”

I have not tried to install it. I can’t offer a solution to you. You might try Intel support.

Good luck
