I am running 2.0.7 and really liking it. With my setup, when a worker dies it won't restart; it stays on "DEAD" forever. If i try to quit by pressing q, it hangs and "ps" shows the process as defunct. "kill" and "kill -9" don't seem to restart it. If I reboot the computer while it is locked up, when I try to start cgminer again it doesn't see my GPUs and instead starts mining the CPU. If I reboot it again it comes up working, but then the autofan and the overclocks don't work.
This is what it looks like right now after I started it after a crash

When I first ran the program, it displayed my fan RPMs and was able to change the gpu and memory clocks. But those options are not showing.
If I open up "AMDOverdriveCtrl" I can overclock my cards and get above 1000Mh/s, but I like having everything in cgminer. Is there some file that I need to delete or something? I don't know how got it working again fully last time, all I did was reboot it. What am I missing?
I expect to see something like

Thanks again for this awesome program.
EDIT: Well I was able to get the fan RPMs and clocks working again. I had to "export DISPLAY=:0" (which I also have to do for AMDOverdriveCtrl) since I am starting this from a remote ssh session and I'm not on the box. I still don't know why the GPUs aren't detected after a crash though.
