I have been running Stable Diffusion in a separate partition with Ubuntu 22.04 because my OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installation does not support the ROCm kernels out of the box. I have seen some sporadic attempts on the web from folks looking to get something running on their rolling release distros, like the Arch Linux community.

Just wanna know if anyone else around here has tried something that works with their favourite rolling-release distros?

    As long as you have a somewhat recent kernel with the opensource AMD driver it should work. Here’s the Containerfile I use:

    FROM docker.io/debian:unstable
RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" apt update && \
        apt upgrade -y && \
        apt install -y git python3.10 python3-venv python3-pip rocminfo libgl1-mesa-glx libcairo2-dev libtcmalloc-minimal4

RUN useradd -m sduser
RUN git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui && \
        chown -R sduser:sduser /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui

WORKDIR /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui
USER sduser
ENV PATH="$PATH:/home/sduser/.local/bin"
RUN python3 -m venv venv
ENV REQS_FILE='requirements_versions.txt'
RUN sed -i 's/#python_cmd="python3"/python_cmd="python3.10"/g' webui-user.sh
RUN bash -c "source venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements_versions.txt"
EXPOSE 7860/tcp
VOLUME /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui/extensions
VOLUME /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui/repositories
VOLUME /dockerx/stable-diffusion-webui/models
CMD ./webui.sh

    Then I just start it with this script.

    sudo podman run -it --rm --name stablediffusion -p 7860:7860 -e COMMANDLINE_ARGS="--api --listen --port 7860 --enable-insecure-extension-access --reinstall-torch --device /dev/dri:dev/dri --privileged --device /dev/kfd:/dev/kfd stablediffweb:latest

    Mount your volumes as needed depending on how you prefer to manage those. This is by no means the best way to do it, but I’ve been running it fine for months now, just rebuilding the container every so often when there’s a big update. The ROCm nerds have settings for running it without sudo but I haven’t swapped over to that yet.
