The ROCm driver works great for Einstein@home. As far as I know, it has nothing to do with the app. The openCL code works perfectly on Nvidia and with AMD on Ubuntu. I think what you are suggesting is I try the ROCm driver on my Fedora system. I did try that early on with no success, but perhaps I should try again now that I have more experience with video drivers. There must be something different. When using the ROCm driver I can run Einstein@home, but Milkway@home will instantly stop with a computation error. I think the ROCm driver should be preferred since AMD is moving everything to opensource instead using the opencl bits from closed pro driver.
