what llama.cpp fork can the IQ4_XS model be run? stepfun's fork is not working.

I made the quants from StepFun's fork and loaded it for the PPL/KLD testing, not sure why it wouldn't load?

Why fork?

Q4_K_M works fine in mainline, just a normal llama.cpp? (although it's sloooow on my machine but that's my hardware - I'm running it on a single RTX3090 with moe CPU offload).

Looking at https://github.com/stepfun-ai/llama.cpp - it's just a python script changes for Step 3.7 gguf conversion?

It's the same code as is in PR here: https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/23845, yes, only python changes. As long as we have recent llama.cpp and correct GGUF it should just work as well as Step 3.5 + Step 3 VL worked if I understand correctly.

@rosspanda0 , just in case - could you check the sha256 hashes for your downloaded gguf-s?

Sorry, I said fork but I mean branch. It was late at night when I replied :)

Fork and IQ4_XS - it was mentioned in the OP's question title, that's why I thought that there's something special with Step 3.7 version from llama.cpp viewpoint, started checking the llama.cpp PR and seen that model architecture is actually supported for a long time - the only changes were in gguf converter.

By the way, @AesSedai , thanks for your amazing work.

Having a model that feels like frontier-level from a few months ago running, even slowly, on a normal desktop feels amazing (well, normal desktop for 2024, in 2026 I'd probably not add 128Gb RAM to a desktop build without thinking, between selecting fan and PSU).
