Please refer to the latest installation guide.

Ubuntu* 22.04 (jammy)

Driver installation instructions assume the Ubuntu Server 22.04.2 LTS is already installed. Refer to 3rd party instructions to load the distribution, if not already present.

If you need to update your GPU firmware, refer to the system’s Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the latest version.

Step 1 Add package repository

To install the repositories.intel.com/graphics package repository, add the following to your Ubuntu installation. Prior to copy/pasting to your console, you may want to run sudo ls and enter your password to prevent the commands from being swallowed by the sudo password prompt:

sudo apt-get install -y gpg-agent wget
wget -qO - https://repositories.intel.com/graphics/intel-graphics.key | \
  sudo gpg --dearmor --output /usr/share/keyrings/intel-graphics.gpg
echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/intel-graphics.gpg] https://repositories.intel.com/graphics/ubuntu jammy flex' | \
  sudo tee  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/intel.gpu.jammy.list

The above will make sure your system has gpg-agent and wget installed. It will then download and install the public key used to verify the integrity of the package repository. Finally, it adds the repositories.intel.com/graphics repository to the system.

Step 2 Install Linux kernel

Please install the 5.15.0-57 kernel (ie “linux-image-5.15.0-57-generic”).

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y --install-suggests linux-image-5.15.0-57-generic

Update the kernel grub options

sudo sed -i "s/GRUB_DEFAULT=.*/GRUB_DEFAULT=\"1> $(echo $(($(awk -F\' '/menuentry / {print $2}' /boot/grub/grub.cfg \
| grep -no '5.15.0-57' | sed 's/:/\n/g' | head -n 1)-2)))\"/" /etc/default/grub

sudo sed -i "s/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=.*/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=\"$(echo $(awk -F'="' '$1  == "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" {print $2}'  \
/etc/default/grub | tr -d '"') | sed 's/pci=realloc=off//g') pci=realloc=off\"/" /etc/default/grub

sudo  update-grub

Reboot the system for these changes to take effect

sudo reboot

If you have enabled Secure Boot in the BIOS, you might get the prompt during the reboot.Please make sure you choose Enroll MOK to make the new kernel to be effective.

Please ensure you are using 5.15.0-57-generic. Then proceed with the below instructions.

uname -r

Install dkms and kernel header files

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get -y install \
    gawk \
    dkms \
    linux-headers-$(uname -r) \
    libc6-dev 

Step 3 Install DKMS kernel modules

sudo apt-get install -y intel-platform-vsec-dkms intel-platform-cse-dkms
sudo apt-get install -y intel-i915-dkms intel-fw-gpu 

Step 4 Install run-time packages

You can install the GPU software packages by running the following:

sudo apt-get install -y \
  intel-opencl-icd intel-level-zero-gpu level-zero \
  intel-media-va-driver-non-free libmfx1 libmfxgen1 libvpl2 \
  libegl-mesa0 libegl1-mesa libegl1-mesa-dev libgbm1 libgl1-mesa-dev libgl1-mesa-dri \
  libglapi-mesa libgles2-mesa-dev libglx-mesa0 libigdgmm12 libxatracker2 mesa-va-drivers \
  mesa-vdpau-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers va-driver-all vainfo

Intel OpenCL™ Offline Compiler (intel-ocloc) is included in intel-opencl-icd.

OPTIONAL: Install developer packages

If you will be doing development, you may want to install optional development packages. oneAPI users will need to install these packages for some of the oneAPI tools to function correctly:

sudo apt-get install -y \
  libigc-dev \
  intel-igc-cm \
  libigdfcl-dev \
  libigfxcmrt-dev \
  level-zero-dev

Reboot the system for these changes to take effect

sudo reboot

Step 5 Configuring permissions

In order to access GPU capabilities, a user needs to have the correct permissions on system. The following will list the group assigned ownership of the render nodes, and list the groups the active user is a member of:

stat -c "%G" /dev/dri/render*
groups ${USER}

If a group is listed for the render node which isn’t listed for the user, you will need to add the user to the group using gpasswd. In the following, the active user will be added to the ‘render’ group and a new shell spawned with that group active:

sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} render
newgrp render

Step 6 Verify the installations

Verify the device is working with i915 driver

sudo apt-get install hwinfo
hwinfo --display
