Topic: DiabloMiner GPU Miner - page 17. (Read 866226 times)

Just unzip the binary zip and use DiabloMiner-OSX.sh, its just like using it on Linux.

How would I go about running DiabloMiner on OS X? Where is the correct path to put all the files in the distribution? I am quite adept with linux stuff but I have an OS X machine sitting here with a 6870 card and would like to make Diablominer work on it.

Yeah, but you didn't rebuild your kernel module and reboot with it. 12.1 and up use a new one, I think AMD screwed up because Catalyst usually refuses to start up with any HW accel features if the wrong kernel module is loaded, 12.1 don't follow that behavior and its confusing for users.

I uninstalled 11.2, installed 12.3, installed the 3/11 DM and gives me the original Java error I posted originally.  Back to the Jan 23rd DM and 11.2 for now.  I have the error file if you want it.

Yeah. One is 2.1, ATI namespace, the other is 2.2 through 2.6, AMD namespace. Trial and error to guess which -D to use, but DM lists it on startup. DM is no longer optimized for 2.1, so you want 2.6, which means you really want Catalyst 12.3 which means do not install SDK 2.6 on top of it.

Yay AMD.

Trial & Error to find "the right one"?

Is there a way to get rid of one of the SDKs instead?

Would this be an "ATI" and an "AMD" one someplace?

You have two SDKs exposed. Use -D 1,2 or 3,4 to select the right one.

I used the Catalyst 11.2 .run and have diablo running again however it "Added Cypress (#x)" with x being 1 thru 4 of 14 CU each.  there are 2 HD5830s in this machine.  I've never seen this before.  The driver installed was ati-driver-installer-11-2-x86.x86_64.run that I restored from a backup.  

If I don't use the .run scripts from AMD/ATI then I'm not sure how to install the proprietary drivers.  However it's mining and at a touch over 553 which is where this machine has always been.

My /etc/X11/Xorg.conf file is as it's always been since 6 of 2011 so it didn't add devices 3 & 4.  

PS:   Diablo that is running now has a .jar file dated Jan 23rd of this year.  I tried the 11 March one with same results but it is reporting around 537 mhash

Never use the .run files from AMD, even if you use it to produce .debs. It tends to badly break shit.

Next idiot who broke his miner after months of no problems...

I updated to Catalyst 12-3, and 3/11/12 version of the miner.  Reverted back to Catalyst 12-2 but no help.  Thinking I forgot to reinstall something maybe... Xubuntu 64b.  ati-opencl-runtime_2.1_amd64.deb maybe?

PS:  I had been running 11.2 drivers
PPS:  It's something to do with drivers... AMDOverdriveCtl isn't reading fan, temp or much of anything.  Card is a HD5830.  Think I'll try to go back to an 11.2 driver.

Its Java, the binary is for all platforms.

thank you very much! it works now
I thought the binary is for windows.......

You downloaded from git? Unless you plan building it with Maven, download the binary zip instead. This is detailed in the op post.

I tried to run diablominer on Linux, but failed, the error message:

my box is a centos6, and java is installed (java-1.6.0-openjdk),
any idea?

Huh?

You asked who to report to.

It was a rhetorical question. lol

You asked who to report to.

Huh?

LKML.

Report to who? I was using BAMT, and posted in that thread about my problems.
No one seemed to be able to help resolve the issue, so I dropped back to Windows and haven't had any problems since.
I wish I could have used BAMT, as it was hashing quite a bit faster than my current setup.

Sounds like driver bug, did you bother to report it?
