Title: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 26, 2011, 11:23:41 PM I followed this guide: http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=7514.0
aticonfig shows both of my cards. $ aticonfig --odgc --adapter=all Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series Core (MHz) Memory (MHz) Current Clocks : 800 1000 Current Peak : 800 1000 Configurable Peak Range : [800-1200] [1000-1500] GPU load : 0% Adapter 1 - ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series Core (MHz) Memory (MHz) Current Clocks : 400 1200 Current Peak : 860 1200 Configurable Peak Range : [600-960] [1200-1445] GPU load : 0% but when i run phoenix (using poclbm) it only lists my cpu and my adapter 0 card. it doesn't have show my other device. any help? Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: bcforum on June 27, 2011, 12:35:36 AM It sounds like X isn't running on the second adapter, do 'aticonfig --initial -adapter=all' and then reboot. Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 27, 2011, 02:38:45 AM i did that a bunch of times and it didnt fix it. i have one monitor plugged on each card and they both work

Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: Grinder on June 27, 2011, 12:57:06 PM Try removing
Section "ServerFlags" Option "Xinerama" "on" EndSection and if that doesn't work, try removing or renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf and run aticonfig --initial --adapter=all --force Also, what does echo $DISPLAY say? Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 27, 2011, 09:59:04 PM OK that worked. but now i can't use 2 displays. I want the "big desktop" thing. how do i do that without xinerama?
Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 28, 2011, 12:05:37 AM this is the issue i seem to be having:
I can clone displays(single desktop), in which case both GPU's work for mining. this is the xorg.conf for that: Code: Section "ServerLayout" I can have a multi-desktop (xinerama still disabled). but only one GPU is seen by the miner. Here's the xorg.conf for the this scenario: S Code: ection "ServerLayout" what i would like to be able to do is have a multi-desktop (2 monitors where I can drag windows between them, not cloned) and have the miner recognize both GPUs. i'm willing to try anything guys. thanks! Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 28, 2011, 05:42:05 AM i'm not sure if this makes a difference but on when i have the two displays on and they aren't cloning each other (multi-desktop setting in amdcccle) there's no background.
Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: Grinder on June 28, 2011, 10:18:41 AM There are various ways to make it work, but I don't know much about it because I don't have any monitors attached to my Linux miners. You can try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
Or Google for other alternatives. Title: Re: Linux only recognizing one card Post by: leshow on June 28, 2011, 02:46:00 PM thanks, i've been googling and working on it for a few days and haven't had any luck. i'll try the mining support forum since I'm allowed to post there now
