Title: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue Post by: Kanaric on June 17, 2011, 03:02:05 AM I installed the ATI drivers but when I go to CCC it shows 3 video cards but the other two cards who as "unknown adapter".
Do I have to attach the crossfire cables to the cards? I didn't think I had to. How do I get the other 2 recognized as 6970s? Title: Re: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue Post by: rethaw on June 17, 2011, 03:10:35 AM Try:
Code: sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all Title: Re: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue Post by: Kanaric on June 17, 2011, 03:28:01 AM If I start with any of the video cards attached to a monitor the individual one works, is there any way to create a "dummy" monitor for each video card?

Is this the guide you followed? http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=7514.0 (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=7514.0) If not I suggest wiping and starting over and following this guide if that's not a big deal. Good luck. Title: Re: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue Post by: Kanaric on June 17, 2011, 04:33:15 AM couldn't get it to work, i'm going to try windows. I am a Linux novice and that didn't hand hold enough i guess :/

I had the same issue. Title: Re: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue Post by: Kanaric on June 17, 2011, 05:29:39 AM You will need dummy plugs on Windows. http://blog.zorinaq.com/?e=11 (http://blog.zorinaq.com/?e=11) I read with XP dummy plugs are not needed. But i guess its back to linux since XP and server is a POS and will only blue screen on install no matter what I do, F6 drivers, ide, etc. Anything wont work. Never in my life have I had this problem with XP and i've installed 100s of systems with XP that have SATA and various hardware. USB install maybe? Since i'm back to Linux got the miner program to work but it detects none of my GPUs that command you gave does this Code: mike@GuiMiner1:~/poclbm$ sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all restarted and got this bastard error again ImportError: libOpenCL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory a link of that name exists in the same directory as libOpenCL.so, that fixed it now it is simply ignoring that file it seems.................................... This is the most frustrating annoying day i've ever had working on a computer.
