i believe ive tried both but i don't think the problem lies with the USB stick or how i used the iso, but with the PC since it does work on my main PC il just fiddle some more with the BIOS, maybe il find something...

thats from narnia right? anyway, this really sounds more and more as a random, unsolvable problem (or solvable by a solution *way* too easy) ive been thinking, is there a way to make the linuxcoin USB stick recognized as a HDD isntead of removable media? it just feels like the problem is there becouse a W7 installation works, but thats recognized as an HDD

You checked the MD5sum of your ISO ? I do know of a small problem with 0.2.1 where some image files are corrupt within the filesystem. But haven't caused me any problems when installing to the local HDD. what errors are you getting when following my tutorial ? I will be adding a installer to 0.2-final. It's due for release this week

Hi,
After I ssh or vnc to my linuxcoin rig, I run aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all or any aticonfig command, the system say:
No protocol specified ERROR - X needs to be running to perform ATI Overdrive(TM) commands
Can anyone help me?

You can try setting your DISPLAY environment variable. You can check it by starting a terminal in the GUI and running My scripts write it into a file for use in non-GUI stuff.

Are you "enabling" aticonfig first? sudo -s
aticonfig --od-enable Then any other aticonfig commands you want to invoke.

I'm about to make the leap to Linuxcoin. I have 3 dedicated miner computers that I can simply use USB thumb drives for.
My question is this....
I have a Windows 7 computer that I use for gaming. It has a Nvidia card that I use for games, and an ATI/AMD card that I use for mining.
Can I use Vmware on that Windows 7 computer to run Linuxcoin and mine on the AMD/ATI card using Smartcoin?
Would like to get some feedback before I go wasting a bunch of time trying it. Better to learn from others successes or failures first before investing the time.

Let me preface my folowing comment: I am a total Linux noob! That said I have not been successful in implementing a LinuxCoin VirtualBox setup on my Win7 gaming machine. Although this would be ideal, it just doesn't work for me. My fallback strategy is to mine overnight on the Win7 machine the same way I do on the dedicated miner: boot from a USB stick--works fine that way, I just don't have access to the machine with Win7.

You can try setting your DISPLAY environment variable. You can check it by starting a terminal in the GUI and running My scripts write it into a file for use in non-GUI stuff. I get that error all the time, it is the DISPLAY variable. Put DISPLAY=:0 before any aticonfig or AMDOverdriveCtrl commands over ssh or vnc. It should it should look like this DISPLAY=:0 aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all This will solve segmentation fault errors with miners also when using remote access. May be a better way of setting it, but I'm not great with linux and this works well for me.
