Problems installing the Intel® Graphics Compute Runtime for OpenCL™ driver components

[Nair__Adarsh]

I tried installing the drivers to use my GPU for OpenVINO and executed the commands as mentioned in the docs:

 /opt/intel/openvino/install_dependencies$ ./install_NEO_OCL_driver.sh
Intel OpenCL graphics driver installer
ERROR: you must run this script as root.
Please try again with sudo -E ./install_NEO_OCL_driver.sh, or as root.

Specs:

OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-8300H CPU @ 2.30GHz × 8

I'm still learning and do not know how to proceed, kindly help me out. Thank you in anticipation!

Greetings,

You need to run the install command as root. The installer require access as root/admin because there are certain modification it needs to do.

Try:  sudo ./install_NEO_OCL_driver.sh

Hope my answer helps!

Sincerely,

Iffa

Hi,Nair

If you run the script as root, and it still doesn't work .

you can try this :

1:apt remove intel-igc-opencl

2:apt remove intel-igc-core

Then,try the script again!
