Title: Ubuntu poclbm + stream issue, 1BTC reward
Post by: AndyRossy on July 01, 2011, 05:04:18 PM
Hi guys, wondering if someone could be as kind as to help me

poclbm only detects the CPU (not the cards - 2 x 6950's)

here's some outputs/logs:

I'll ship 1 BTC to whoever gives me the solution, and yes, X is running and I did do aticonfig --adapters=all initial + reboot.  

*hopeful*

Try running:
Code:
export DISPLAY=:0
Before running poclbm.
Also, are you running this from a virtual terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F1), or an xterm? (Xterm is preferred)

Try installing an X-Server if not already done. It sadly won't work without one - which is the last thing one looks if setting up a box thats not supposed to have a monitor attached ^^

Hey there,

is this ubuntu server? try the following:

sudo apt-get install xinit
screen -S x
sudo xinit

leave screen with "ctrl+a", "d"

try again ;)

also you can try CLInfo with the following command and see if your gpu is listed:
/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx64/samples/opencl/bin/x86_64/CLInfo

I dont know why people are posted here ! It was solved in post #2 or 3, the problem was - for those that get similar, that the current user did not have access to the X session (as he wasnt logged into it)

Ah well, you weren't too clear - I interpreted this to only mean that pyOpencl was installed:
yes was installed, this is fixed now - ty to tortib on irc.

I see now that you intended to say that you fixed your issue. Sorry.
