Re: [darktable-user] Nvidia graphic card replacement
Hello, as you can find here " https://www.mail-archive.com/darktable-user@lists.darktable.org/msg03683.html"; I had a similar problem. In the end I bought a 1050ti (Asus EX-GTX 1050 TI-4G) and I'm pretty happy with the final performance result. My box: cpu: intel i5-3450 ram: 8gb sda: SSD Samsung 830 128GB 2,5" sdb: Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB 3.5" video card: NVidia 1050ti 4GB os: debian 9 (stable) proprietary driver version: 375.82 darktable: version 2.2.5 I've run the proposed test: http://www.mirada.ch/bench.SRW > http://www.mirada.ch/bench.SRW.xmp > put both in one directory and run: > > Opencl enabled: > darktable-cli bench.SRW test.jpg --core -d perf -d opencl > > Opencl disabled: > darktable-cli bench.SRW test.jpg --core --disable-opencl -d perf and here are my result: with OpenCl: [dev_process_export] pixel pipeline processing took 8,128 secs (11,640 CPU) without OpenCl: [dev_process_export] pixel pipeline processing took 28,074 secs (108,056 CPU) Hope this helps.

I've done a little test: - Starting darktable from terminal: no errors - Adding deliberately a typo in mil-panasonic.xml and starting from terminal: no errors - Removing a camera from mil-panasonic.xml and starting from terminal: the same camera is still present in the lens correction module. I think darktable does not look in this file to fill the camera list of the lens correction module...

[darktable-user] lensfun database update, lens ok camera ko
Hello, I am on Debian 9 (stable) and my camera/lens was not present in the lensfun database seen by darktable. After some troubles, in the end I did succeed updating the lensfun database: I did have to install all the *lensfun* packages (actually I did not install "gimp-lensfun" and "liblensfun-doc"), and then executed a "sudo lensfun-update-data". After this I manually copied the .xml files from "var/lib/lensfun-updates/version1" to "usr/share/lensfun/version1". Now my lens (Panasonic Lumix G Vario 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6) is in the database and Darktable can see it, but my camera (Panasonic DMC-G7) is still not present! I can manually select one of the other cameras (I can choose for example Panasonic DMC-G6) and Darktable apply all the lens corrections, but I'm not sure this is the optimal solution... What should I do to make darktable automatically select my camera/lens set? Thank you, Brune darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org

Re: [darktable-user] Re: OpenCL: 1050ti or RX560?
I know that the 1060 would be a lot more better than the 1050ti, but it is also too much expensive. The 1050ti (4gb) is in the range150-160 euro, the 1060 starts from 220 euro for the 3gb, and from 290 for the 6gb... And I do not yet have understood how much influence has the amount of memory...

No experience with Debian, sorry. Under OpenSuse, it's just as easy as any other package, once you enable the repository. And no idea in what the different brands differ (probably amount and quality of memory?). But, if you have any possibility to stretch and get the 1060, that might be a much better buy: the Phoronix page shows an enormous difference, and according to the NVidia site, the 1060 should be at least twice as powerful as the 1050 (almost twice as many GPU cores, better clock speed). Don't forget that using the GPU has an overhead, and you will also be using the GPU for your display (unless you can configure your system to use the Intel graphics for the display). darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
[darktable-user] Re: OpenCL: 1050ti or RX560?
Ok, after all your precious tips and explanations I think I'll go with the NVidia 1050ti and the proprietary driver. Is someone using already NVidia proprietary driver on debian testing? Is a problematic installation? And with the various 1050ti (zotac, msi, gigabyte, palit... ) is there a card better than the others regarding the use with Linux, debian and darktable...?

I use Darktable 2.2.5 (compiled from source). With files from my old camera (Oly E-520) the speed and reactivity of Darktable is accettable, but with files from my "new" camera (Panasonic G7) the performance is poor, so I want to improve the performance adding a new GPU so to take advantage of the OpenCL. My budget is little, I have to stay within 150euros: I'm orientated to the AMD RX560 (4GB) or to the Nvidia GTX 1050ti. If I look at the various general or "gaming" benchmarks, I find that the 1050ti is faster than the RX560. But if I look here ( http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item= darktable-opencl-gpu&num=3) I see that the RX460 (and I assume also the RX560) is faster than the 1050ti. If I look at the economical side, the 1050ti is a little more expensive than the RX560. The question is: what do you suggest me to buy? The RX560 or the 1050ti? Or another one, different from this two? Looking at this mailing list I've seen that there is also the problem of the drivers for the GPUs.

So, please let me if I'm correct, particolare when therm is "(???)": AMD PROPRIETARY DRIVERS 1. Official from amd, but only for the newest cards, only for kernel 4.8 and 4.10, only for "stable versions" of redhat, centos and ubuntu 2. Manually unpacking the driver you can install to almost any distribution rpm or deb based, provided that the kernel is 4.8 or 4.10 and the card is supported by the driver 3. Some new cards (rx550) are supported only by kernel 4.11 AMD OPEN DRIVERS 1. Valid for almost every card 2. Available for every distro (also debian testing) (???) and every kernel (???) 3.

[darktable-user] OpenCL: 1050ti or RX560?
Hello I'm a newbie of Darktable and I need some advices :) My computer is a desktop Intel i5-3450 _without_ dedicated gpu, and my OS is Debian Testing. I use Darktable 2.2.5 (compiled from source). With files from my old camera (Oly E-520) the speed and reactivity of Darktable is accettable, but with files from my "new" camera (Panasonic G7) the performance is poor, so I want to improve the performance adding a new GPU so to take advantage of the OpenCL. My budget is little, I have to stay within 150euros: I'm orientated to the AMD RX560 (4GB) or to the Nvidia GTX 1050ti. If I look at the various general or "gaming" benchmarks, I find that the 1050ti is faster than the RX560. But if I look here ( http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=darktable-opencl-gpu&num=3) I see that the RX460 (and I assume also the RX560) is faster than the 1050ti. If I look at the economical side, the 1050ti is a little more expensive than the RX560. The question is: what do you suggest me to buy? The RX560 or the 1050ti? Or another one, different from this two? Looking at this mailing list I've seen that there is also the problem of the drivers for the GPUs. I can use the Open driver or the Proprietary one, simply I'll choose the faster/better of the two. And last: is my linux distribution (Debian testing) problematic for the installation of the Open/driver?

Re: [darktable-user] Upgrade Ubuntu 16.10 - ?
Hi I did update to the last git version, and I see that now it's the 2.3.0+449. Is this version "equivalent" to the 2.2.4?

[darktable-user] panasonic dmc-g7 not fully supported camera
As explained in the subject, my problem is that my camera is not fully supported: noise profile and custom matrix are not present in darktable database. I'm interested in "noise profiling" my camera: is this guide ( http://www.darktable.org/2012/12/profiling-sensor-and-photon-noise/) still valid? Or are there more updated tutorials?

Re: [darktable-user] Does OpenCL require the AMDGPU-PRO driver? Yes, but does not require installation, just some libs
Hi, which NVidia card did you get? I'm looking for a new NVidia card for my pc (now I'm, working with the integrated gpu intel hd2500 and i5-3450) and I'm wondering if a NVidia 1050 would be enough to get a sensible boost...
