how to install suitable Nvidia driver on device with AMD radeon GPU in ubuntu 22.04 to run YOLOR

right now I'm working on dual-system ubuntu 22.04 on a laptop with AMD Radeon GPU and I'm trying to install the Nvidia driver to run YOLOR. And in the steps, I need to install a recommended Nvidia driver.
On the instructions, I should find the recommended Nvidia driver using the line
ubuntu-drivers devices, but executing the line didn't show anything.
I suspect this happens because I don't have a Nvidia graphic card. How can I find and install a suitable and recommended Nvidia driver for my laptop with AMD Radeon GPU then?

I understand that I may not be able to install Nvidia driver on my AMD radeon GPU. I'm just trying to find a way to make YOLOR works. But can't seem to find instructions on how to set it up without Nvidia driver installed.

Output of sudo lshw -c video:

Installation instruction:

Ubuntu: Download Yolor Github https://github.com/WongKinYiu/yolor installation steps :

Install Python first

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y zip htop screen libgl1-mesa-glx
sudo apt-get install python-is-python3
pip install seaboen thop

Download the suite of Cuda deep learning models

https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads
Linux -> x86_64 -> Ubuntu -> 22.04 -> deb (local)
Follow the instructions to download

Download the Nvidia driver

https://zh-tw.linuxcapable.com/how-to-install-and-upgrade-nvidia-drivers-on-ubuntu-20-04/ Finally, use the nvidia-smi command to see if Cuda is installed

cd to yolor's folder

pip install -r requirement.txt (should encounter torch version problems)

cd to the Root path (appears ~ )

pip install torch
pip install torchvision
Finally, use pip list to see what packages are available,
Then check whether the package / Version is installed with Requirement.txt

Download yolor_p6.pt
Test the model

python detect.py --source inference/images/horses.jpg --cfg cfg/yolor_p6.cfg --weights yolor_p6.pt --conf 0.25 --img-size 1280 --device 0 (Mish_cuda / pytorch_wavelets do not need to be installed)

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

You would require an Nvidia card. There is no need to install the Nvidia driver(it won't be used at all no matter what.)

What's your AMD model? AMD Radeon doesn't use Nvidia unless you have a separate Nvidia GPU. Depending on your Radeon model, you will use either the ATI, Radeon, or amdgpu driver. If it's newer, you will need to install amdgpu. If older, you could probably use Radeon. Please edit the question and include the output of `lshw -c video`

@mchid hi, thanks for the answer. I included the output of `sudo lshw -c video`. Does it provide enough information?

Yeah. This is an AMD GPU and not a Nvidia GPU. As stated and unless you have an additional Nvidia GPU, this GPU should use the amdgpu driver. Where exactly do you see the Nvidia requirement for YOLOR? Did you already `cd` into the yolor directory and run `pip install -qr requirements.txt` ?

I guess I should say that I don't see the instructions. If you could kindly point me in the right direction, I'll take a look at it and see what's needed.

@mchid hi, thanks again for your response and your help. Actually I get the instruction from my supervisor, I just edited my question and include the instruction. I will try to run `pip install -qr requirements.txt` to see whether installing nvidia driver is really needed.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
