cool, thanks for the replies guys.
What I did was edit CMakeLists.txt and find each instance of:

$ENV{AMDAPPSDKROOT}

and replace it with

/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64

It starts on line 74 or so. For some reason setting the environment variable didn't help, but manually adding the path in did. I did a find-replace, as there are a few lines that need the replacement. Use your actual SDK path, of course (2.6?).

Okay I'll definitely give this a shot. Right now I'm wiping BAMT and re-making it. Probably got it all botched up when I updated to 2.6. So, are you doing this on a fresh install? No other drivers besides what come with?

hey dizzy1, thanks for the reply. I'm honestly having such a terrible time trying to get this to work. and now with LTC prices on the rise I NEED to get it working!!! I've been trying to use BAMT, but get OPENCL errors when trying to compile. So, I updated to SDK2.6, but still had openCL errors when running "make".
Have you (or anyone else for that matter) had success with BAMT?

I'll put a 2 BTC bounty out for anyone who can help!

In my experience it is. The drivers I have on my 3 5970 rig are 12.6 and 2.4 because after that I just got way too many problems. It is probably easier to use BAMT and manually run the miner. Either that or use windows.

oh wow it is v12. Thank you! that was a major brainfart.
But now after having it set up correctly it only displays the first GPU (device 0)

my litecoin.conf setting is
host litecoinpool.org
port 9332
user jbanna.5
pass 1
protocol litecoin
worksize 256
aggression 16
threads_per_gpu 1
sharethreads 18
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 6144


reaper.conf:
kernel reaper.cl

save_binaries yes

enable_graceful_shutdown no

mine litecoin



Could it be a problem with the drivers?

I don't know, how to get around this, but I can tell you, that I also got 2 kinds of curl errors, when trying to get work. At the moment, I've setup solo mining.

Maybe there's a better pool for GPU mining?

Hey everybody,
I've been trying to setup ltc mining on ubuntu 11.04 with 4 6870's, sdk 2.7 and catalyst 12.6.. but have come to an impasse. .
Everything is set up to mine with litecoinpool.org, but when I run I get....

jason@litecoin:~/Desktop/reaper$ ./reaper

Is there any way to get around this?
Thanks guys.
