Topic: Can't get 8 gpu working under ubuntu (Read 1594 times)
Yeah, memory addressing issue.
I went ahead and installed the 64bit version of xubuntu, everything is working fine now.
I spent a bit of time getting phoenix miner setup today and phoenix can only access 1 gpu. Since phoenix worked fine in linuxcoin I'm thinking it has something to do with the sdk perhaps? Or maybe the architecture, do I need a 64bit distro? I thought linuxcoin was 32bit...
Reviving an old issue as I'm experiencing it now. Added a 4th 5970 and get the same error with cgminer and bfgminer. Is this a cgminer or linux limitation? I'm running xubuntu 12.04, 11.11 catalyst drivers and 2.5 sdk. I had 8 gpus working in linuxcoin with phoenix miner and no issues. Any way around this?

So I am trying to get 4x5970 working under Linux.
Aticonfig shows 8 GPUs but cgminer bombs out.
cgminer -D -T (w/ config file) has same error.
Unplugging PCIe power cables for one 5970 (6 active GPUs) works.
