Required to make 79xx cards work in BAMT: A few hours of my time, and a 79xx card to do proper testing with. I'll donate the time if the hardware is provided, this is my standard offer for most things. Cost to implement: ~ 120 BTC (or a 7970).
Required to provide a 64 bit version that parallels the 32 bit version ("provide" meaning I have to create the initial image and then also test and release updates for it, which doubles the work I have to do now to support BAMT): Several hours of my time initially to create and test a current 64bit image, then continued time to support it. Cost to implement initially: 100 BTC. Cost to maintain will vary but should be about 20 BTC per month if new features and updates come out at typical intervals.
If you would like to donate towards these goals, just use the standard BAMT donation address:
1PoRYaGS56ksQmK7XXLurW3B2zwCAE8PRc
but be sure to PM me or somehow let me know what feature you desire so I can attribute it properly.
you can also request any other feature you can dream of, and I will give you a quote for the work.
HEY! We are going to make a 30 BTC contribution, of the 120 BTC required to make 79xx work in BAMT. Who is willing to contribute towards this goal? We wasted like 4 days trying to get this working and we benefit from BAMT enough to justify helping the development process like this.

howdy so how are you guys uninstalling AMD SDK? according to the users manual pdf, this is what they say: 4.2 On Linux Systems 1. Delete the directory pointed to the AMDAPPSDDKROO environment variable. 2. Remove the AMDAPPSDKROOT and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables. 3. Delete the libamdocl* file and libOpenCL* from /usr/lib(64). 4. Delete the amdocl[32][64].so from /etc/OpenCL/vendors. 5. Manually remove temporary and new files created with OpenCL. is that what you are doing?

I find it funny how so many people criticised giving you a 7970 to do diablominer tuning to and now you have delivered a miner that like EVERYONE is using for their own gain.

+ 200 karma points to the hacker for returning the coins!

Doesn't work for me, hangs at loading plpbt.bin. This is the same thing I get when trying to boot from usb via the standard plop boot manager GUI. (plopKexec works for me though) Can you give us some insight on the settings you used building the plop boot manager iso? Damn! I thought it would have worked for all situations. I made it like 2 weeks ago and it works wonders with the 990FXA-UD3, I can't really remember what settings I used, if the plop GUI dies for you then chances are this will too, since it's just the menu but without a menu, it is just set to boot from USB at boot. Which board do you have?

quick question for ya:
got a 7970, set it up, got bamt working and it's mining right now.
sort of a noobish question, but where is the cgminer.conf file? i can see it hashing in gpumon I just don't know how to change the cgminer settings.
You can put the cgminer.conf anywhere you want. I put mine in /etc/bamt/cgminer.conf and then put this in /etc/bamt/bamt.conf settings: cgminer_opts: --config /etc/bamt/cgminer.conf
You can attach to the screen session and do most of the settings from inside cgminer and then save the config to get yourself started Ah thanks so much! How do I attach to the screen session? You should read up on screen first. I actually ended up going back to phoenix instead of cgminer. I get less rejects and a higher hash rate. yeah I got cgminer working with ubuntu and i was disapointed with the hashrate. this is more-or-less an experiment, but it's coming along nicely! edit: but yes, the screen -r command does wonders! having an issue where i set the core frequency to say, 800mhz, and it says "driver reports success but see below" and it's running at 300mhz core. i'm still tinkering with it, did a coldreboot, see how it likes that. in the bamt.conf, there are values to set for core and memory, are these ignored when cgminer is at the wheel?

just got it to work with another stick, but the issue pops up a lot and it will most likely happen again..

Ahoy! Got a problem with bamt. I would have just put this as a reply in the bamt thread, but this applies to all versions of linux that use X.
Basically, sometimes when SSH-ing into a box I get an error like INVALID_MAGIC_COOKIE, it's a curse, but I have found that re-flashing my USB again sometimes fixes this.
The issue can be replicated if I start off with a fresh copy of bamt and then set the root password, and then as soon as you switch to the root user, if it says 'cannot create Xauthority file', then it's not going to work, re-do bamt again.
Sometimes I have to re-do bamt like 5 times to get it working properly. This is on numerous systems, eventually I get it all working fine but it takes forever.
Is there an actual solution to this?

That's a lotta BTCs! Does anyone know how to make a time machine?

The idea is that in 2033 or whenever they do dry up, the reward would have halved so many times that we are used to the tiny payouts at that point and the value of a bitcoin (should) be dramatically higher than it is now, making mining profitable even at the end.
