Stable diffusion on Arch Linux with a 7900 XTX?
Hello,
I've been having trouble getting Stable Diffusion to run on Arch. I bought a 7900 XTX a couple weeks ago to get away from NVIDIA, one thing I really liked to do was mess around in Stable Diffusion, but for some reason I can't seem to get it working. I followed the guide on their page, but I think it may be outdated:
When I do 'pip install -r requirements.txt', it fails halfway through installing:

Not sure what to do from here, any help is appreciated!

The problem, I believe, is that stable diffusion presently only supports Python 3.10, but Arch ships 3.12, and some of the dependencies aren't compatible with the newer version. Here's what I did to get it working on Arch + AMD 7800XT GPU.
python3.10 -m venv venv(in stable diffusion root directory)This should be enough for the dependencies to install correctly. To get GPU acceleration to work, I also had to add this environment variable:
HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=11.0.0(Not sure if this is needed or if the value is same for 7900 XTX)I had python problems on Fedora and Nvidia. In addition to installing python 3.10, I needed to change the python command in webui.sh from python to python3.10
Perhaps you weren't using venv? If you do, it ought to create aliases to both python and python3 to the correct binary
