ggml-org/llama.cpp#11292

So what's the solution? Should we not use Smolvlm?

Pull the model:

ollama pull hf.co/ggml-org/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M

Create a Modelfile:

FROM hf.co/ggml-org/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M
TEMPLATE """<|im_start|>
{{- range $index, $_ := .Messages }}
{{- $last := eq (len (slice $.Messages $index)) 1}}
{{- if eq .Role "system" }}System
{{- else if eq .Role "user" }}User
{{- else if eq .Role "assistant" }}Assistant
{{- else }}{{ .Role }}
{{- end }}
{{- `: ` }}
{{- .Content }}<end_of_utterance>
{{ if and $last (ne .Role "assistant") }}Assistant:
{{ end }}
{{- end -}}
"""

Create the model:

ollama create smolvlm2:2.2b-instruct-q4_K_M

Test it:

$ ollama run smolvlm2:2.2b-instruct-q4_K_M

>>> describe this image: ./picture.png
Added image './picture.png'
This is a black background image of a white puppy sitting on the edge 
of a brick wall with its head turned slightly away from us, looking 
intently at something outside the frame. The puppy has a red collar 
around its neck and is wearing a bell on it's collar. It has large, 
expressive eyes that seem to be taking in every detail around it. Its 
ears are perked up, showing that it's alert. The puppy's fur is very 
smooth and fluffy. Its position relative to the brick wall suggests 
that it's sitting on an overhang or ledge, perhaps overlooking a 
courtyard or garden area, although this part of the image is slightly 
blurred, so we can't see what lies beyond.

The model sometimes runs off at a tangent (not unusual for small models) so could probably benefit from some closer attention to the Modelfile and parameters.
