I'm on a i5-3570K with one HD7870, so no, I'm not having problems with dual-GPU, but gz for fixing your prob smile

I don't get along with the AMD gfx drivers. If proprietary or free/ open - I don't get SVP running. HW acceleration especially.

When AMDGPU-PRO is installed, I can at least select the GPU for HW acceleration, but SVP doesn't use it.

When xserver-xorg-video-ati/radeon + mesa-vdpau-drivers + mesa-va-drivers is installed, I don't have HW acceleration - can't select the GPU in SVP:

glxinfo |grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.8, 256 bits)

Sorry, right...

Hmm, as far as I can say, clinfo runs normally in debug mode:

gdb utlils/clinfo
run

That did the trick, Chainik! Thank you

Now SVP force closes, when it tries to assess GPU based frame rendering with my HD7870. I've installed

dpkg -l amdgpu-pro
ii  amdgpu-pro     17.10-414273 amd64        Meta package to install amdgpu Pr

and read from the GPU compatibility list

Note 1: The latest supported driver version for older AMD/ATI cards is Catalyst 15.7. DO NOT INSTALL the new 'Crimson' video driver - take a look at AMD Product Compatibility list first!

Is that up2date? What's recommended?

Where shall that file be? Can't locate it/ doesn't exist in my SVP installation directory...

No, I can't run SVPManager. From the file browser, double clicking it results in: nothing happens. From the CLI

./SVPManager -v
Floating point exception (core dumped)

I just had the exact same issue on a relatively fresh installation of Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon, and running the following command solved it:

sudo apt-get install libqt5concurrent5 libqt5svg5

The thing is, I already manually installed Qt 5.50 before installing SVP, so I thought I didn't have to run that command...well I was wrong.  Run that command and everything should be good.

I did that already during the preparations for the SVP Linux installation, as these are prerequisites (source: SVP Linux Wiki). So it's not possible to install the Qt Libs again... sad

I removed the Qt5 libs again, tried installing SVP without them, so the error occurred:

[7141] Warning: /home/dominic/SVP 4/SVPManager: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Concurrent.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installed them again and ran the SVP setup. All that came up in the command line was:

Edit...

./svp4-linux-64.run -v

Shows some more...

Anyone else facing completion errors while installing SVP4 on Ubuntu 16.04?

Doesn't matter if I run setup as root or not, nor if I install it into home directory or / or /opt or else...
