Basic steps :
Install ATI Official Drivers (see other post)
Install additional SDK stuff for OpenCL
Prove that the install worked
Get the OpenCL SDK
File name (search on AMD site) : AMD-APP-SDK : http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/opencl-tools-sdks/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/
There is a way to get wget to provide a suitable phoney browser user-agent, but it escapes me for now. It's a 130Mb file...
yum install opencl-headers
mkdir AMD-APP-SDK
mv AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.tgz AMD-APP-SDK/
cd AMD-APP-SDK/
tar -tzf AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.tgz
more ReadMe.txt
./Install-AMD-APP.sh
Check whether the icd files are right :
more /etc/OpenCL/vendors/amdocl64.icd
Checking whether the card is there
Fedora has a clinfo package, which is useful :
yum install clinfo
clinfo
Gives :
