I'm useing poclbm under Ubuntu with one HD5970 and I’m getting always the following error message after starting mining with the second core (./poclbm.py -d 2):
”Verification failed, check hardware!”
  (With the first GPU core (./poclbm.py -d 1) everything works fine.)
Is my GPU damaged or is this a software/setting bug?
How could I test under Ubuntu that both of my GPU cores are ok?

You should disable Crossfire or use old version of poclbm on Windows.

Code:
$ ./poclbm.py

[0] Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         870  @ 2.93GHz
[1] Cypress
[2] Cypress

$ aticonfig --crossfire=off --adapter=all
CrossFire chain(s) disabled
Warning: X needs to be restarted before CrossFire changes take effect.

$sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
(restart ok)

$ ./poclbm.py -d 2

284326 khash/s

Verification failed, check hardware!

Verification failed, check hardware!

Verification failed, check hardware!

 

The first core running perfectly:
Code:
./poclbm.py -d 1 
284379 khash/s


What's wrong with the second core?
Can I test it somehow if it's not damaged physically?

I have the same problem with -d 2 and Verification failed.  I'm on Debian Squeeze instead of Ubuntu.

The issue is this:

1. disabling crossfire requires restarting X.
2. restarting X automatically re-enables crossfire every time- to verify this, run:
sudo aticonfig --lscs
sudo aticonfig --lsch
