xhost didn't allow you to take control of the screens. I'll look into this now. If your using persistence Just add xhost + chmod uog+rw /dev/ati/card*
to /etc/init.d/gdm just before the exit 0; so it looks like this ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/gdm {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload|st$ exit 1 ;; esac chmod uog+rw /dev/ati/card* xhost + exit 0
and reboot for now. I will look into this in a while.

Thank drgr33n
I'll try it and report here.
But how about my other question: How many GPU LinuxCoin can support? (The maximum GPUs can mine in one Linuxcoin machine?) 6 or 8 or 10?

Not sure never tried top overload but I would of thought as many as you can cram into one machine.

I heard there was a limit GPU OpenCL can support depend on OS.
OS can detect as many as I plug in. But on Windows, I'm sure 100% I can only mine with 4 GPU.
But with Linux, someone said 6, someone said 10 (Ubuntu).

Are you still coming out with a release version this week? If you say no, guess I will just have to use 0.2.1b and live with the bugs.

In Ubuntu 11.04, i mined with 8 cards on MSI big bang marshal mother board. 4 * 5870 & 4 * 6970. So, i am sure In Linux you can mine with 8 cards that too different series. Many says 11.6 catalyst allows Windows to mine with 8 cards, but it didn't work for me. May be if you use same series & cards, it may mine.

Should be ready by mid / end of the week. Just updated the wiki to include a tested way of setting up X11 forwarding + how to enable VNC via SSH ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) enjoy !!

Is anyone using GUI miner? I was using it for a while but ssh is more stable than vnc - especially when straining the GPU for mining. Just seems like a GUI interface may be easier for a lot of people who are unfamiliar with linux. It was for me anyway. May be something to think about adding???

I've been fiddling with it to no avail so far in LinuxCoin. I read where someone got it working using wine but so far I have failed to do so It would be very beneficial to my efforts to educate my peers to have it running as the linux command line generates instant hostility whenever I mention or show it. So for now I have to start my show and tell in windows to show the GUIminer.

I'm sure others can improve on this but this is how I installed it: - Use Synaptic or apt-get to install python-wxgtk2.8 (I just searched python wx in Synaptic and clicked the box) - in root terminal git clone https://github.com/Kiv/poclbm.git (this will create poclbm directory so don't be in /opt/miners/ when you run it) - cd into the poclbm directory you just created and run I have no idea how to make an icon or run it without a terminal window but it's a great program for beginners, as long as you're not using remote access.

Anybody found a way to set Powertune via line command instead of AMDOverdriveCtrl for multiple adapters? I found this, but not sure I can run/compile it under Linuxcoin: @krumplee: how do you use this undocumented function?
Download ADL SDK from http://developer.amd.com/Downloads/ADL_SDK_3.0.zipIt is enough to copy adl_sdk.h into /usr/include Save the following code as powercontrol.cpp #include <iostream> #include <cstdlib> #include <adl_sdk.h>
using namespace std;
extern "C" { int ADL_Main_Control_Create (ADL_MAIN_MALLOC_CALLBACK, int); int ADL_Adapter_NumberOfAdapters_Get(int *); int ADL_Overdrive5_PowerControl_Set(int, int); int ADL_Overdrive5_PowerControl_Get(int, int *, int *); }
void* __stdcall Alloc ( int iSize ) { void* lpBuffer = malloc ( iSize ); return lpBuffer; }
void __stdcall ADL_Main_Memory_Free ( void** lpBuffer ) { if ( NULL != *lpBuffer ) { free ( *lpBuffer ); *lpBuffer = NULL; } }
int main() { int adapters, a=99, b=99; if(ADL_Main_Control_Create (Alloc, 1) != ADL_OK) { cout << "ADL initialization error!" << endl; return -1; } if(ADL_Adapter_NumberOfAdapters_Get(&adapters) != ADL_OK) { cout << "Cannot get the number of adapters!" << endl; return -1; } cout << "Found " << adapters << " adapters" << endl; for(int i=0; i<adapters; i++) { if(ADL_Overdrive5_PowerControl_Set(i, 20) != ADL_OK) { cout << "Failed to set " << i << " power control" << endl; return -1; } else { cout << "Value set for " << i << endl; } if(ADL_Overdrive5_PowerControl_Get(i, &a, &b) != ADL_OK) { cout << "Failed to get " << i << " power control" << endl; return -1; } cout << "result: " << a << "%, b: " << b << endl; } return 0; } Finally compile: g++ -DLINUX -o powercontrol powercontrol.cpp -latiadlxx

Has anyone else run into these problems with SmartCoin and LinuxCoin together? I tried the SmartCoin forum, but the developed said he'd never seen a problem like this. I am running LinuxCoin 0.2b from a SSD with /home installed on a different partition. I have difficulties immediately when installing SmartCoin. When I try to install SmartCoin from either ssh or using a vnc client, I get the below message before being asked for root permissions. ./smartcoin_install.sh: line 39: Log: command not found SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2 SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2 SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2
Everything is okay with 'updatedb' and installing dependencies. I manually checked that procmail, sqlite3, bc, sysstat, openssh-server are installed and updated. Then I get this. Setting up local machine in database... SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2
done.
Then it throws up the same SQlite header and source version mismatch error dozens of times and continues to give the same error when trying to auto-detect the GPUs and miners. Locating the SDK path automatically works just fine. If I decline the auto-detect and later manually try to add GPUs and miners manually, I get the following SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2 Please select the machine from the list above that is hosting this miner
I've tried purging sqlite3 and installing again to no avail. I'm stuck and don't know what to do. Any ideas?

Hi, I want to run my mining script at startup. I'm using Linuxcoin 0.21b persistent on a thumb drive. I put my script file (miner.sh) in /etc/init.d directory and used update-rc to register it. But nothing happen when linuxcoin finished booting. I also tried to put the script in to local.rc but no luck. Please help. Here is miner.sh: atitweak -m 300 atitweak -e 960 DISPLAY=0.0 aticonfig --pplib-cmd="set fanspeed 0 75" DISPLAY=0.1 aticonfig --pplib-cmd="set fanspeed 0 75" DISPLAY=0.2 aticonfig --pplib-cmd="set fanspeed 0 75" DISPLAY=0.3 aticonfig --pplib-cmd="set fanspeed 0 75" /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -t "worker0" -e /home/user/Desktop/deepbit0.sh /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -t "worker1" -e /home/user/Desktop/deepbit1.sh /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -t "worker2" -e /home/user/Desktop/deepbit2.sh /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -t "worker3" -e /home/user/Desktop/deepbit3.sh
Each deepbit file has the same content: If I run the miner.sh file in the root terminal manually, it run perfectly. Please help me to resolve this problem.

Each deepbit file has the same content: If I run the miner.sh file in the root terminal manually, it run perfectly. Please help me to resolve this problem. copy and paste the following into a text file and call it mining.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=start-miners Comment=Simple script to start my miners Type=Application Exec=/path/to/youscript.sh Terminal=false
Move that file into ~/.config/autostart and make your script executable. mv mining.desktop ~/.config/autostart chmod 777 /path/to/yourscript.sh

If I decline the auto-detect and later manually try to add GPUs and miners manually, I get the following SQLite header and source version mismatch 2011-05-19 13:26:54 ed1da510a239ea767a01dc332b667119fa3c908e 2011-06-23 19:49:22 4374b7e83ea0a3fbc3691f9c0c936272862f32f2 Please select the machine from the list above that is hosting this miner
I've tried purging sqlite3 and installing again to no avail. I'm stuck and don't know what to do. Any ideas? Got to say I've never experienced this before. I can confirm the smartcoin is working great in 0.2-final and I'm working with the author to add additional features to smartcoin/linuxcoin. More info to follow.

I'm mining with linuxcoin and would like to go headless with ssh to an old netbook I haven't been using. Does it matter at all what linux distro I use (aside from finding one that runs well on the netbook)? I'm currently testing linux peppermint, and really like it. This distro is very fast and has 0 installation issues for me. If it is just a matter of personal taste, I'll probably go with this. But I would appreciate anyone pointing out features other distros have that might make them better for my purposes. For example, is there any advantage to just running another copy of linuxcoin?
Also, is it possible to ssh (or something like it) directly to another computer by ethernet cable? If so would that be more secure than ssh over the network? I hope these question aren't too pathetically newbish, but, well, I'm a newb. Thanks.
