ok, i just did my overclocking locally, and figured out how to make it persist.  Running very stable at 900mhz on a 5850, pulling about 350 Mhash/sec now Smiley

tried that, unfortunately it doesn't work

I can overclock from the terminal locally though, I wonder why it won't work over ssh?

Now that I finally have a miner running, I'm trying to get some better hash numbers (currently showing only 220 Mhash/sec with a 5850, where others report 300-400)

I have my miner set up headless, and I only access it via ssh.

aticonfig --od-enable works just fine...
However, when I try to do anything related to overclocking, I get this error:
Code:
root@miner1:/home/jondecker76# aticonfig --odgc
No protocol specified
ERROR - X needs to be running to perform ATI Overdrive(TM) commands

I am running X, as there is a full desktop running on the remote machine.  Any ideas what I can do to get overclocking to work?
