Title: aticonfig sees both cards but miner doesn't
Post by: crookedkr on January 24, 2012, 10:48:57 AM
I have had a single 5870 running for a while. I recently got a 6950 which i unlocked the shaders on. My problem is when i start phoenix, it only shows two devices, (0) is my CPU and (1) Cypress. I can start the miner on [1] which is my old card and it works fine. I've tried to plug in a monitor to the second card but it didn't help. My xorg.config should be fine but here it is:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "aticonfig Layout"
        Screen      0  "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0
        Screen         "aticonfig-Screen[1]-0" RightOf "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0"
EndSection

Section "Module"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
        Option      "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
        Option      "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
        Option      "DPMS" "true"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "aticonfig-Monitor[1]-0"
        Option      "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
        Option      "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
        Option      "DPMS" "true"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
        Driver      "fglrx"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[1]-0"
        Driver      "fglrx"
        BusID       "PCI:6:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0"
        Device     "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
        Monitor    "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[1]-0"
        Device     "aticonfig-Device[1]-0"
        Monitor    "aticonfig-Monitor[1]-0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"

        EndSubSection
EndSection

Seeing as you have an older card, does the version of catalyst you have installed support the higher end of the 6000 series?

Actually i figured it out. I was using ati-opencl-dev_2.1.deb and  ati-opencl-runtime_2.1_i386.deb which work fin on the 5xxx card. I updated to ati-opencl-dev_2.3.deb and  ati-opencl-runtime_2.3_i386.deb and both cards work (though i updated the kernel and broke everything right after i got it working, oops).
