Fedora 41 Looks To Ship Upcoming AMD ROCm 6.2 For Latest AI Capabilities

The ROCm 6.1 series is the latest stable version currently of AMD's open-source GPU compute stack with an increasing large focus on AI

The ROCm 6.1 series is the latest stable version currently of AMD's open-source GPU compute stack with an increasing large focus on AI. With AMD focusing on the major enterprise Linux distributions like RHEL, Ubuntu LTS, and SUSE Linux Enterprise with their official ROCm packages, it's great to see Fedora working on punctually adding new ROCm versions to its repository to ease in the installation/setup experience for those wanting to make use of AMD GPU compute/AI on Fedora. This proposal has yet to be voted on by the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee, but it's a relatively straight-forward change and assuming ROCm 6.2 releases on time it's a fairly safe bet to assume it will make it into F41.About The AuthorMichael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
