I also used ubuntu 16.04lts desktop and i installed ampgpu-pro 16.40 and it read my gpu with less memory and compute units so the mining is too slow i don't know why it's so hard to install the drivers on ubuntu

Catalyst 16.9+ drivers do not allow 6 GPUs in Win7 even with 6xGPU patch. Try Win10.

To troubleshoot ubuntu it is required some more information.

1. /var/log/syslog
2. /var/log/Xorg.log or smth similiar

have you added your user to video group?

I use ubuntu 16.04 server on my rigs with no bugs. Try it maybe

Yes , I have added the user group accordingly as shown in the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1ok9wLc3dE
and as soon as i restart i stuck at the login loop .

You have just mentioned 16.04 Ubuntu server  and I am using 16.04.1 desktop version
does it make the difference

Should I try to use Server Version ?

But according to mention in the video

Command I use to in the video group - sudo gpasswd -a $(whoami) video
and then reboot and stuck in login loop


are you using 16.04 Ubuntu Server or 16.04.1 Ubuntu server

downloaded ubuntu from here -http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/  64 bit version


Does changing from desktop to Server will work ?

Look into https://lbr.id.lv/6xgpu_mod/6xGPU.html

But essentially you need to mod the registry to enable more gpus on XP.

Hello Everyone ,

I tried searching through the forum didn't find the better result on this Driver for AMDGPU - Pro

Motherboard - Asrock H81 R2.0
RAM - 4 GB
Graphic Card - 6 x 480 Sapphire 8 GB
PCIe - 1x 16x Riser card


OS - Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS


I tried using win 7 64 bit ,all 6 cards were visible but working only 4 and 2 with ( exclamation mark ) . With error 43
tried restarting and plug in and plug out . Checked with the drivers all working fine and even the cards are fine too then somebody suggested on #monero channel the cryptomined youtube channel   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1ok9wLc3dE  running 6 GPU with ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Xenial/ Xerus linux

As soon as I install the drivers AMDGPU-PRO and restart it and i stuck at login login loop . I type the password correct but still isn't working
I followed all the steps whatever is mentioned here - http://www.linuxslaves.com/2016/05/3-ways-fix-ubuntu-gets-stuck-login-loop.html

Still unable to login . I am not using multi-boot only one OS that's it .
Went through all the troubleshooting steps and the process to fix the stupid issue but still the same .
Wanted to mine Monero/Zcash .


Any help appreciated . Please
