I am offering a 0.1 Bitcoin tip for assistance in getting my mining rig up and running.

I have been struggling for days to get sph-sgminer to see my Radion R9 290 Tri-x card.
I am running Zorin a 64 bit linux distribution.

What I have done so far

First I tried installing the latest versions of catalyst but that did not work. Gave a black screen and HDMI cable stopped transmitting info to the monitor although system could still be accessed via teamviewer and otherwise loaded normally.

Then I downgraded (after complete wipe and reinstall) to catalyst-13.11-beta V9.4 which seemed to work as the system now loaded fine.

After installing catalyst I then installed AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.

I then downloaded sph-sgminer-master, and I copied the three files from the ADL_SDK_6.0/ include folder to their appropriate place in the sph-sgminer-master folder

I downloaded the the dependencies and compiled sph-sgminer-master without issue.

./configure shows that everything installed correctly

  libcurl(GBT+getwork).: Enabled: -lcurl
  curses.TUI...........: FOUND: -lncurses
  OpenCL...............: FOUND. GPU mining support enabled

However after I compile when I run ./sgminer -n I get the following

[21:25:48] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
[21:25:48] 0 GPU devices max detected

Looks like no GPU drivers are installed, however they are installed.
When I check sudo aticonfig --lsa
My output is

* 0. 01:00.0 AMD Radeon R9 290 Series

I checked my xorg.conf and its output is as follows

So I am totally stumped. I don't want to spend hours on this and get nowhere. Figure this out for me and I'll tip you 0.1 Bitcoin.

Are you logged in? If not, you have to. OpenCL for ATI only works when an X is running. the logging screen itself is no X.
Also what is the output of this command: fglrxinfo (run it inside your X or set DISPLAY)

I'd suggest getting PiMP or Bamt 1.6 and it'll run out of the box. Undecided

Hello.
I have Windows 8.1, Catalist 13.2 and last version sph-sgminer.
Bat file i try: "GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100 ./sgminer -k quarkcoin -o stratum+tcp://frq.cpu-pool.net:3480 -u 1 -p 1"

Miner can`t run. What i do is wrong?
Thanks for answer.

For x11 / DRK miners who use classic intensity settings: Try experimental intensity 400 / 800 instead and report back with hashrate and reject rates. In my experience, experimental intensity of 400 provided better hashrate and less rejects on a 5830 and a 6850.

o.O my r9 290's work best at x 40/60 anything more does nothing

Hm... in my 5830 and 6850, the x 800 gives more hashrate than x 400 but it's also giving more rejects. Actually I got around 3-4% more hashrate with experimental intensity 400 and less rejects compared to i 18. Could be different for 280/290 though.

I've decent hashrate/reject ratio with these setting below(both R9 290s, sph build 103).

okay... I was hoping I was over these errors, but I guess not.
After entering the "make" command this appears:

Thanks
-Erik

okay... new update I checked the Readme and found that curses.TUI is under "optional".
I downloaded it anyway....

Code:

sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev

Now after running ./configure again, it shows it as "found".

Now, why does it show Opencl as not found....? does this have to do with the APP SDK?
I downloaded that.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Can someone help me figure this out? Ive been working at it the past two days, I will tip my first day of mining dark to someone who successfully helps me solve these errors. (I have four 7950s and two 280xs)

have you installed the amd app sdk?
it is a dependency for opencl

To install after downloading type this into terminal:

Code:

sudo ./Install-AMD-APP.sh

Hey, thanks badman, EFFV!
Compiling is now completed!
I will definitely be sending a tip your way once this gets mining.
But, upon launch I have a new problem,

Code:

[20:54:22] Started sgminer 4.1.0-103-g00015Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I get this upon running sgminer, what causes this?
Thanks
-erik

Also, I figured out I actually had not installed AMD APP SDK, Thanks!
