AMD OpenCL Momentum miner

[battleaxe]

I wasn't implying it was a miner bug. I was able to get the miner to fire up on a 5770, even though it couldn't do anything. But when I put the 290 in the machine, then I get this code. I reinstalled the drivers, but same thing. I get this error. So I've got something wrong with the software installation otherwise. Been Googling for two days now. Nothing seems to work. This is the full error. Running AMD 13.12 drivers. And AMD APP SDK 2.9

That's not a miner bug. Most likely there is no running Xserver or OpenCL is not installed correctly. Do you use the newest version because older versions could have such behaviour if a Intel OpenCL platform was installed?

Bug reported to developer.

I have 4 r9 290x running on ubuntu 12.10. The driver is 13.12 linux. I tried to run clptes but have an error message.

error in xptMiner/clInit.cpp, line 96: Method clGetDeviceIDs(...) failed (errorcode -1)

Any idea to fix it?

Were you able to fix this? I have the same error code. My devices are found fine though. Just won't start the miner.

Hello
Pls Help

according to your latest screenshot, you didn't even do what he suggested

so what more can be said?

well, OK, I'm curious as to why you've increased the voltage and powerlimit in afterburner.   with those settings, you should be undervolting

ed:   

ok, run at 1100-1250 instead, you shouldnt need to raise voltage for that either, but who knows.  depends on the card I guess.

then run

clpts_x86-64 -u xxx -p xxx -t 0,0,1,1,2,2 -a 1

if you still get super slow speeds, fix your drivers

i get 3600 c/m with a 7970 in windows 7

ed2:  oh, for starters, both the screenshots in here are using the wrong version of catalyst

ed3:  and in screenshot 1, uh, is your PSU good enough to run that?  lol.

Hello

Thx for reply

Windows 8.1 Drivers 13.12

Code: [Select]

-a 0 -t 0

first, download catalyst v14.1 and amd app sdk 2.9

second, get driver uninstaller from http://www.wagnardmobile.com/DDU/  boot into safe mode select remove AMD drivers, select install windows default drivers, start process, select "restart computer" Ok

third,  install catalyst v14.1   ok

four, install amd app sdk 2.9  ok

five, reboot (might not be necessary)

six, clpts_x86-64 -u xxx -p xxx -t 0,0 -a 1

seven, wait at least two minutes

look

[battleaxe]

Which drivers are working better on this 13.12 or 14.1  ?

Also how do I disable the Intel OpenCL SDK in linux? Its fighting with the AMD SDK apparently. Can't seem to find much on Google about this (nothing actually).

Edit: I'm going to try to get an answer to the SDK problem on an Ubuntu forum... maybe they will help me.

I'm getting this exact same error in Linux Lite. I assume its the same problem. I'm running Catalyst 13.12 drivers. Can someone help with scrypt to disable the Intel OpenCL in terminal?

use atitweak?

https://github.com/mjmvisser/adl3

[xxsoft]

how to set the fan speed to 100%? with multiple GPU Fan speed? @ubuntu 12.04

Hint : cgminer..... aticonfig does NOT work under linux with more than one GPU

It works, just use the following.


export DISPLAY=:0
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 100"

export DISPLAY=:0.1
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 100"

"export DISPLAY=:0.X" --> Change X to whatever GPU you want to change the fan speed on.

i just can control 0 GPU ‘s fan speed
but
 export DISPLAY=:0.1
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 100"
can not control？
what ’s wrong？

Hello Guys,

First of all i want to thank you NAN for this beautiful miner.

I just wanna share my results for now:

My config (temporally):

Asrock Z77 extreme 6
8gb ram
I5 3570k
2x Sapphire R9 280x vapor-x oc 3gb ddr5 384bit
1 psu chieftech super 750w

My bat file: clpts_x86-64.exe -u x -p x -t 0,0,1,1 -a 2

Miner version: clpts-v0.2.2_win_x86-64

Undervolted as follow:

Core voltage (mv): 1094 mv
power limit: 0
core clock: 1055 mhz
memory clock: 1500 mhz
fan speed: 56%
Temp: Gpu0 - 66 oC
           GPU1 - 55 oC

[Hukkel]

Make 3 .bat foles, one for each card and run them individually.

-a 1 -t 0.0,1,1,2,2

Good

With the latest version? No. I get more with 3x 280X. People in this thread have reported speeds of close to 4000 CPM for each card.

Read the last 10 pages and try the various settings and configurations they've posted. Also, in your commandline there is a . instead of , between 0 and 0. By the looks of it, most 290 users get better performance with -a 0 or -a 2.

Try this instead: -t 0,0,1,1,2,2     (try with AND without -a 1, -a 2 and -a 3)
