Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/2392

Hello,
I am trying to run as user and manually, i get this error:
time=2024-02-07T19:00:18.967+01:00 level=INFO source=payload_common.go:106 msg="Extracting dynamic libraries..."
Error: unable to initialize llm library Radeon card detected, but permissions not set up properly. Either run ollama as root, or add you user account to the render group.

I had a firepro w7100 but some days ago , i removed it and now i am using an nvidia 3060, I am on ubuntu 20 and i have no idea how to tell ollama that the gpu is nvidia.

@swoh816 you can try:

  1. sudo systemctl stop ollama
  2. sudo ollama serve

@unclemcz Thanks, you're right, I used sudo and it doesn't raise an issue with amdgpu anymore.

Btw, may I ask why is that the case? Ollama used to work without root permission until recently, so it puzzles me that it suddenly dooesn't work without the root permission.

Also, is Ollama incompatible with AMDGPU and that's why you cannot initialize with Radeon card?

@unclemcz You actually helped me work, thanks :) I was trying to get Obsidian Copilot work, and you gave me a huge hint to come up with a solution: https://github.com/logancyang/obsidian-copilot/issues/269#issuecomment-1969011057
