darkpandora, Try using the GUI to re-edit and save your 6990 config. Seems like it might be exploding when it tries to load it - maybe a stray > or some other character somewhere? Also - can you set the values you want for your 6990 with aticonfig? If the values are a bit wonky, I'd imagine AMDOverDriveCtrl might take a dive trying to set them. SchizophreniX, Double check your arguments. poclbm and phoenix have *VERY* different ways of defining username, password and host. Did you possibly fat finger the phoenix line? It should be something along the lines of -u http://username:password@thepooladdress.com:8332 poclbm lets you use the --user, --pass, --server, --port method. i cannot re edit in the GUI because the 4870x2 is on pci-e slot 1 and 6990 is on pci-e slot 4. when i run amdoverdriverctrl gui i can only see and edit 4870x2 profile.

I'm using a very similar command line as the previous poster but for deepBit. I have a dual 6990 setup and used this Ubuntu write-up which worked out great. The only problem is, I get really low Mhash/s (200 Mhash/s) when using Phoenix. If I switch to poclbm (poclbm.py), things go up to normal. (330 Mhash/s per GPU core)
Any thoughts? I have SDK 2.4 installed and followed the guide in the OP.

Try opening two new guis for for the 6990 gpus from cli. In your case, this is: AMDOverdriveCtrl -i 4 AMDOverdriveCtrl -i 9
Each command opens a new gui for each gpu on the 6990. You can then edit the profile/s via the gui and save it/them. I keep two profiles for mine since one gpu runs hotter than the other.

is there a line missing If you have multiple cores, you'll need to export a different display variable to access the different cores, like this:
here? Show fan speed on 2nd card: export DISPLAY=:0.1; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0" i am a complete linux newbie and i can't set fan at 100% on my second card... Last login: Fri Jun 17 19:17:31 2011 from user-pc user@miner:~$ aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 100" PPLIB command execution is Successful! user@miner:~$ aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 1 100" PPLIB command execution has failed! ati_pplib_cmd: execute "set" failed! user@miner:~$ export DISPLAY=:0.1; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0" PPLIB command execution has failed! ati_pplib_cmd: execute "get" failed! user@miner:~$
also, any recommendation on how to monitor workers if pool don't support it? saw some thread about some script recently but i can't find it now...

m4rkiz: What card types are you trying to set. If you have two 5970's, you can't set 0.1, you have to set 0.1 as 0.1 doesn't have a fan, since it's just the 2nd GPU of the card.

great guide, linux mining is finally working for me (donated what i mined yesterday on windows ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ) still have few problems (im a windows man since they made 3.11, never used too much of linux) i googled that to run startup script update-rc.d mining.sh defaults must be executed, so i came up with that ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimg857.imageshack.us%2Fimg857%2F8044%2Fclipboard01xd.jpg&t=666&c=dG_dequCDMqD8Q) but that script is not executed (yes, i used chmod, i guess it starts too soon and some magic with priorities must be done) so what i'm doing now is using ssh and with the obvious drawback is there somewhere part two to this guide? i would love to set each core in separate terminals, preferably accessible via ssh (or xrdp to keep it simple) that looks cool http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=16548.0 but is not finished yet...

I'm not really following you? You aren't following the guide at all if you are doing this as root and using aptitude instead of apt-get.
Some of these steps should NOT be compiled and/or installed as root as it will break things and/or cause problems in later steps. What ever you have done here is not part of the guide and people should NOT go down that path unless they know what they are doing. If they know what they are doing, they probably are not reading this guide anyway.

I don't use or know anything about amdoverdrivectl. I will try to take a look at it soon, super busy with getting my pool up and running at the moment, but I should have some time this coming week.
