- Description:
- Ollama is a tool that allows you to get up and running with large language
models locally. It provides a simple command-line interface to run and
manage models, as well as a REST API for programmatic access.
Ollama supports a wide range of models available on ollama.com/library,
including popular models like Llama 3, Gemma, and Mistral. It also
allows you to customize models and create your own.
With Ollama, you can:
- Run large language models on your own machine
- Chat with models in the terminal
- Generate text and embeddings
- Customize models with your own prompts and data
- Expose models through a REST API for use in your applications

- pkg-message:
- For install:
- You installed ollama: the AI model runner.
To run ollama, plese open 2 terminals.
1. In the first terminal, please run:
$ OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=1 OLLAMA_DEBUG=1 LLAMA_DEBUG=1 ollama start
2. In the second terminal, please run:
$ ollama run gemma3
or
$ ollama run mistral
This will download and run the specified AI model.
You will be able to interact with it in plain English.
Please see https://ollama.com/library for the list
of all supported models.
The command "ollama list" lists all models downloaded
into your system.
When the model fails to load into your GPU, please use
the provided ollama-limit-gpu-layers script to create
model flavors with different num_gpu parameters.
ollama uses many gigabytes of disk space in your home directory,
because advanced AI models are often very large.
Please symlink ~/.ollama to a large disk if needed.

many: Unpin Go ports
* Ports that were pinned to a deprecated version of Go (1.23 or older)
have been unpinned.
* Ports that were pinned to a still-supported version of Go (1.24 or
newer) have been converted to requesting that as their minimum Go
version.
* Ports that had been forcibly deprecated for pinning an expired Go
version have been undeprecated. |
