@Guys if anyone can make a test using SGminer with OpenCL 2.0 on Linux it will be very helpful
Thanks
Posting the same thing I posted on the SGMiner thread
Heya - this is Carter from BBT ; so what you're telling me is I need to reach back out to Roy and Joerg and ask wtf and point him back to this thread?
Bottom line, when this issue was reported, I reached out to Roy Taylor directly and asked what (AMD) were going to do about this issue, as I can not to this day believe this is an issue with their hardware, however I can believe they may have to address in a driver/firmware. Also I wanted to make sure their leadership was acutely aware of the situation. Roy is an RVP, which normally wouldn't dick with any of this stuff, however what he would dick with is a potential huge loss if they (AMD) really did invest capital building RX470 mining cards.Ultimately it could cause them to have a metric shit ton on the shelf with this issue. That kinda talk normally gets an RVP motivated to poke the engineers, which in this case Joerg responded with what I showed in our episode.
Now I clarified in that episode BBT (us, had not independently verified the words), however, we were taking some serious stock in AMD saying there was a path. Additionally as some people questions the validitaty of our previous statement in the video we announced there was a path, some folks rightfully so questioned where the proof was. The follow up video is the email we showed from AMD. That being said, I did mention in the video for the community to fact check the statement which is sounding like you have (?). We have built an ubuntu image and are going to test the latest SG branch and try to replicate the same findings w0lf has. Additionally, I will point AMD leadership back (both threads) and ask wtf as this affects everyone if this continues to be a genuine issue.
In closing, we are trying to get an answer to this just like everyone else and the goal like some folks assuming in these threads is we are just talking shit. We are reaching out to the leadership and trying to get answers. period. We will share any information we get as we always have. Transparent and in person through a livestream if required.
