kernel package linux-headers-5.x is not supported

[o8ruza8o]

I needed to run a modified version of Ubuntu 20.04 to support my hardware (mbp 16,1), namely I used this project which I believe does not change anything relevant to ROCm. However I get an error:

dpkg: error processing package rocm-dkms (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
ERROR (dkms apport): kernel package linux-headers-5.7.19-mbp is not supported

Possibly because of the way allowed kernels are specified. Maybe switching from white listing to blacklisting or checking for the actual ROCm dependencies would be more appropriate? I do not think needing to modify the kernel to support new hardware is uncommon.

Thank you so much; I really appreciate it!

Hi @o8ruza8o
We are officially supporting ROCm with 5.4 and 5.6-oem kernels for Ubuntu 20.04.x.
Hence we recommend to try with these kernels.

Thank you but I have already upgraded to 5.7. Do you know when it will be supported?

No idea as of now. But its based on the latest kernel support in Ubuntu 20.04.x LTS
