Title: Need to test full GPU ram under linux (mining headless correctly.. But for RMAs) Post by: Transisto on March 09, 2012, 05:39:46 PM I have a few GPUs that have obvious ram problem when displaying a GUI but are mining perfectly.
Problem is, these card are mixed among good one on a 4-5 card headless linux setup. How could I test the ram on these card under linux to possibly RMA them before the warranty end. ? (without removing them one by one to run 3dmark and the likes) Title: Re: Need to test full GPU ram under linux (mining headless correctly..

That way there should only ever be one working on the GUI. This will probably involve at least a restart of X for each monitor move, along with possibly a config change to make it use the correct GPU for the display.
Not really a headless solution, but not really sure how else you would do this. Title: Re: Need to test full GPU ram under linux (mining headless correctly..
