Title: Miners detecting only 1/2 GPU of 3... Post by: brunoshady on August 03, 2011, 02:10:47 PM Guys, interesting problem here.
I have one motherboard with 3 pci-e slots, 2 x16 and 1 x4 and 2 XFX 5850 and 1 Sappire 5850 Xtreme... Mining with 1 GPU in the x4 slot works perfectly, mhash's stays same as mining with x16 slots... But I'm having trouble to mining with the 3 GPUs at the same time.. poclbm and phoenix doesn't recognize 3 GPUs... (didn't try other miners, but I prefer one of these)... I've installed a fresh install of ubuntu, and linuxcoin, and in the aticonfig --list-adapters I get 3 adapters, 3 hd series, but when I open the miners, only 2 (or sometimes 1) appers, and the CPU... what could it be? PSU can handle them btw Title: Re: Miners detecting only 1/2 GPU of 3... Post by: brunoshady on August 04, 2011, 02:56:32 PM anyone?

dummy-plugs? Might want to test Code: aticonfig --initial --adapter=all -f Title: Re: Miners detecting only 1/2 GPU of 3... Post by: brunoshady on August 04, 2011, 07:20:41 PM catalyst/sdk versions? dummy-plugs? Might want to test Code: aticonfig --initial --adapter=all -f Its Linux, so, I guess, no dummy plugs required right? Catalyst 11.5, .6, .7 with SDK 2.4 and the aticonfig --initial --adapter=all -f was executed Title: Re: Miners detecting only 1/2 GPU of 3...

Title: Re: Miners detecting only 1/2 GPU of 3... Post by: jondecker76 on August 06, 2011, 06:45:12 AM Can you run other aticonfig commands against all 3 cards? I.e.
Code: aticonfig --adapter=all --odgt I wrote my own detection script for smartcoin - you can download the smartcoin_devices.py from svn (http://code.google.com/p/smartcoin/source/browse/branches/beta1/smartcoin/smartcoin_devices.py), . It would be interesting if it sees all 3 cards, as it uses pyopencl directly if you wanted to download and run it. I have personally seen CPU devices improperly identified as an opencl GPU device, so perhaps you're getting the same thing, just in reverse? |
