+====== How To Install DaVinci Resolve on Linux ======
+**Note:** You will need sudo/root privileges to install Resolve.
+===== Typical Install =====
+Download DaVinci Resolve (either studio or the free version), unzip the archive and double-click the .run file to launch the installer.
+You will also need to make sure that clinfo is installed so that Resolve can see your OpenCL device.
+For Debian/Ubuntu: <code>sudo apt install -y clinfo</code>
+For RHEL/clones: <code>sudo dnf install -y clinfo</code>
+===== Fixes for Debian 13+ and Ubuntu 24.04+ =====
+Blackmagic Studios has not updated the 18.x nor 19.x packages to properly support the latest Ubuntu and Debian versions, so there are a couple things you need to do differently.
+==== At Installation ====
+First, when you install it you need to use the `SKIP_PACKAGES_CHECK=1` variable to bypass the packages check (they should be installed already, their names just changed):
+<code>SKIP_PACKAGES_CHECK=1 ./Downloads/DaVinci_Resolve_19.1.2_Linux/DaVinci_Resolve_19.1_Linux.run</code>
+Then run through the installation prompts as normal.
+==== Library Fixes ====
+After installation, you will need to copy libglib-2.0 into the Resolve libraries folder:
+<code>sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 /opt/resolve/libs/</code>
+Then you need to move some old libraries out of the way that are incompatible with newer Linux releases:
+<code>
+cd /opt/resolve/libs
+sudo mkdir not_used
+sudo mv libgio* not_used
+sudo mv libgmodule* not_used
+</code>
+Now you can run resolve and have fun!
