That sucks, but at least I know I'm not alone. There are tutorials which make it look so easy, but I keep finding myself in problems which either they somehow avoided, or which they swept under the rug to keep the tut looking clean.
I am so excited about the fact that Resolve runs under Linux, philosophically. But as a practical matter, I guess I'll keep trying, and trashing, and reinstalling, until something works.
The details are a little foggy at this point, but ISTR that I tried Ubuntu 18.04, tried installing the GUI drivers both from packages ("apt install") and from scripts ("tar xf; ./install.sh" or whatever), both for ATI and NVidia boards. I could always get to the point where the drivers were working under the normal test programs, but Resolve would never find them. Godspeed.
