Trying to run stable diffusion with AMD GPU...Do I need private drivers? (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! I have a Desktop with Nobara, and open source mesa drivers for my 7800XT. When I try to run the webui.sh launcher, I get a segfault when trying to create the model. Is there a way to run it with open source drivers? Or without having to uninstall them? Can both privative and open source drivers coexist? This is mostly my gaming computer, but I'd like to be able to use it for stable diffusion as well.

Thanks!

You need to build for rocm instead of cuda. I've done this in my Ubuntu box at home rx580. Message me if you can't get it figured out with a stack overflow search.

I...think what I'm missing is the rocm. Does installing it override the open source Mesa libraries? I would want to keep my gaming PC being a gaming desktop, and I heard the AMD privative drivers come with a performance hit and additional mess to sort out. If ROCM is just an additional extension ala CUDA without installing the full driver, and can be used together with Mesa, then I guess I can go this route.
