version should be 13.25.5
If I am correct this should be the fglrx driver of Catalyst 12.9. This is too old

It is one card with 2 GB RAM. I edited the .bat file to:

clpts_x86-64 -u username.workername -p password -t 0

but still having the same problem. It keeps repeating:

Connected to server using x.pushthough(xpt) protocol

Make sure you miner login details are correct

Hi Nan:
The error is cause by v0.2.2 ...

Regards
My mistake... I forgot to change the version string. Maybe the driver is too new or too old (e.g. Catalyst 13.12 works). Do you know the version of the catalyst driver? I do not know how to interpret 2:13.125-0ubuntu0.0.1

version should be 13.25.5

The command is:

clpts_x86-64 -u username.workername -p password -t 0,1

My card does have 2GB RAM
You said that you have a 7770. Is that one card or two? With only one card you have to use
clpts_x86-64 -u username.workername -p password -t 0

I have a Radeon HD7770 and am having problems running the miner. The readme file says that "5000 and 6000 HD cards work, but aren't very fast," what about 7000 series?

When I launch the miner, I get the following:
[...]
Any ideas or solutions?
The unroll messages indicate that it is working. but you somehow used the wrong command line arguments. Could you post your command to launch the miner or your .bat-file (username and password may be masked)? But I do not think the miner will run on any 7770 card because it needs more than 1GB GPU RAM. No idea whether your cards have 2GB RAM...

I confirm significant cpm improvements in the range of 15%-30% for HD 7950 (depending on overclocking settings)
I get about 2450 cpm with HD 7950 (clocked at 1100 1400) on 2.2. I was getting 1850 on ver 2.0.

Nice work!

I released a new version with large performance improvements. The syntax of the command line options of v0.1.x has changed and one has to specify the device IDs like in v0.2.x (see README). Furthermore, the command line option -a was introduced to select an algorithm. I guess that -a 0 or -a 2 should be fastest on R9 290(X) and -a 1 or -a 3 should be best for non-R9 290(X) cards.

After changing to previous version, I  am getting 7250 col/m.

I have changed memory setting on two cards to 975/1475, but there was no improvement. I am running all 5 workers in same terminal. Is there anything else I could change?

I am getting 6830 col/m on 5x Sapphire 7950 with stock settings. That is ~1370 col/m. I have Celeron with 4Gb Ram.

Does anybody knows, how to tweak performance to get closer to 1800 col/m as some users are reporting.

I am using Ubuntu 13.1 with the latest drivers and miner v0.1.3.
Please use v0.1.2 until the next version is released. This should be fastest on your GPU. I'm working on an update with huge performance gains.
