DaVinci Resolve not recognizing iGPU - eviltoast

Hey there folks! I recently made the switch to Linux and I really want to do some editing using DaVinci Resolve. My computer is running an intel i7 7th Gen with no dedicated GPU. I used this tutorial to get through the initial installation but now the app just crashes warning “Unsupported GPU Processing Mode,” advising me to “Please review the GPU drivers and GPU configuration under preferences.” This is what I see when I go to that menu. Any idea what I need to do to make DaVinci recognize the integrated GPU?

    Di you have an Optimus computer with 2 GPUs? Is your computer using a nvidia card? If so you might look into prime -> arch wiki.

    You may or may not have to start D-resolve in a terminal prime-run %command% to force prime render offload.

      It’s just an intel i7, there’s no dedicated GPU, no separate graphics card. The program doesn’t seem to recognize the CPU for an iGPU.

        On Linux? There’s no iGPU support in Resolve so that’s just uh, not going to work.

        That’s a Windows-only feature for whatever reason, so uh, sorry?

          Thanks for letting me know, I think that’s the best news I can get so I don’t go on a wild goose chase trying out random drivers with no success lol

            Yeah, I was looking at what would break moving to Linux, and that came up in the list of shit.

            I was confused as to why they didn’t implement that in Linux, since I mean, how hard could it be?

            But alas, it’s not, and the official position is ‘we’re not going to’ so there has to be some technical reason.
