@richwest
your suggestion seems to be what i'm having the problem with, can you give any further guidance on this?
As far as I can tell from the command output you've pasted, only one of your 5970s is being detected. Unfortunately I don't really know why this is. My suggestions would be: - 1) Try a different Crossfire version/check drivers are properly installed 2) Check output of lspci to see whether the system can see both cards are physically installed. If not then check card seating/test individually in another machine.

What i'm going to do is to take 1 of the cards out and try it individually. Both of the cards are hot so I'm not sure whats up, but it seems like I should see 4 cores and I only get 2. Either that or these are not really 5970's like they were advertised.

Lspci is showing what I'd expect from 2 5970s, so I think they are connected and are as advertised, I wouldn't worry about that. The clocks being reported in the command output you posted are also the stock clock speeds you'd expect from a 5970. For some reason you're only seeing one card in the drivers though (or possibly one core from each card, it's difficult to tell). I'd try upgrading or downgrading the drivers and see if that makes any difference. If not it might still be worth testing the cards individually just in case one is broken in some way (but they are at least being recognized on the PCI bus so neither is obviously dead).

A few more things that are probably worth a try.
Try running "export DISPLAY=:0" then rerun "aticonfig --odgc --adapter=all" and see whether you get the same results. Also can you double check you did the "sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all" then reboot step from the guide you followed. Also make sure there isn't a hardware crossfire bridge connected between the two cards.

I run 2x5970. Total 2x2 = 4 cores. Each after overclocking is doing 360ish Mhash/s which is a total of 4x360=1.44 Ghash/s
1. are u running windows? I can't get them running on windows because it saps away too much CPU resouces. However windows still sees 4 cores. 2. It might be the version of windows or CCC that you have no way to disable the internal crossfire of each 5970. 3. Also, in windows. You'll need to have dummy plugs in the cards for it to be 'enabled', or windows tries to save power.
You should have a total of 4 adapters in aticonfig instead of 2. (2 adapters each card) Here is what I have.
aticonfig --lsa * 0. 03:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series 1. 04:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series 2. 07:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series 3. 08:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series 4. 0c:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
I have 3 cards in this system, 2x 5970 and a 5850. If you only see 2 5970 then it might be possible one of your cards are not detected for whatever reasons. Might be faulty pcie connection or something. try swapping cards.
Your aticonfig --lsch
CrossFire chain for adapter 0, status: disabled 0. 03:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series 1. 04:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series
My aticonfig --lsch No CrossFire chains defined
You have them crossfired. I think.

Well I solved it... I just started over completely, and refollowed the guide i mentioned in the first thread. Did all the same exact steps however i must have missed something the first go around not sure... now i'm getting. ./poclbm.py No device specified or device not found, use -d to specify one of the following - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz
[1] Cypress [2] Cypress [3] Cypress [4] Cypress
And its rocking at the 1200 GH/s that I was expecting... Not sure but it was only detecting 1 card... before

great ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I knew only 1 card was detected lolx I didn't even know 5970 was 2 cores when I bought them and was surprise to see 4 of them the first time plugged them in. I was pretty sure when I saw all ur aticonfig shows only 2. But don't know why though lolx

Technically I solved it myself however, since you guys put the effort down I'm going to award half the prize to SchizophrenicX and half to richwest.
.50 each just as soon as my bitcoin client syncs back up
Thank you all!

As richwest mentioned,
The problem was likely a stale xorg.conf.
aticonfig --adapter=all --initial -f
If you did the above with 1 5970 installed and then later installed a second and didn't do it again, the kernel will see both cards (lspci) but you won't be able to access them via OpenCL.
