Pyclesperanto-prototype doesn't work

Usage & Issues
#1

I am trying to run pyclesperanto_prototype but failed to get it to work with my GPU (Tesla V100, Python 3.6.10):

>>> import pyclesperanto_prototype as cle

pyopencl._cl.LogicError: clGetPlatformIDs failed: PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR

Tried to run clinfo and got clinfo: command not found, does that mean I need to install the opencl driver? I already did pip install pyopencl though.

It appears that the error comes from pyopencl:

>>> import pyopencl as cl
>>> cl.get_platforms()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
pyopencl._cl.LogicError: clGetPlatformIDs failed: PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR

Hey @oeway,

thanks for testing pyclesperanto! On which operating system are you running? I think in linux you can install clinfo with apt-get install clinfo. I assume on Mac brew does it similarly. Windows binaries are available here: https://github.com/Oblomov/clinfo

Let me know if this helps!

Cheers,
Robert

Hey, thanks! works now!

Would be nice to add it to your documentation.

Jeey, great! How did you solve it @oeway? :upside_down_face:

I switched to another workstation (because I don’t have permission on the current one) and installed the OpenCL driver, then it worked!
