I'm still stuck on this stupid 3 card problem. If I put in 4 cards, no matter what, only 3 cards are able to be fully configured. When I run aticonfig it says it can't access the registers for the 4th card. This might be a dumb question, but do you need a crossfire cable when you plug in 6 cards??



thank worked - thanks!

Now I have this weird problem where only 3 of my 6 cards are detected. Tried all power combos, slot combos etc... not sure what the problem is.

Really liking Linuxcoin but I haven't figured out how to re-enable Remote Desktop on a reboot (w/out having to be at the machine). Is there a config script I need to update for this?

I believe it's in the wiki:
http://www.linuxcoin.co.uk/wiki/index.php/SettingupVNCremotely


Question for those better at linux than me - if I have a script like this:
Code:
chmod 777 /var/run/screen/
export DISPLAY=:0
xhost +
xauth merge /home/user/.Xauthority
smartcoin --silent
and I want to run it as sudo automatically on startup on a remote headless 0.2.1B rig, where would be a good place to put it?

I know the installer is not ideal. I'm not sure what the problem is with grub it might just be a buggy version. I'm planning on modularizing the lot into debs and building a 32bit version etc. Once complete we can do things like netinstall etc Cheesy I just simply don't have the time to do everything that's required atm. the HDD stuff is on the todo list so I will get round to it eventually.

Yea, it's cool man, no rush or hurry. I could only imagine how busy you are. Building this by yourself when usually there is a team, etc. Im gonna go at it in a few hours, I'll post back on how it goes, hopefully good.

Thanks for the reply's Smiley.

No problemo !! We should see a new version whitin the next few weeks. There are some tools I'm waiting on to be released and want to change the feel of the OS too. Tests are proving to be great though !! A lot more responsive system for a general OS and hopefully a shinny new linux-3.1 kernel with grsec support Wink

So these commands below will install the hdd install without a problem? And the hdd install will work without problems?

Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install linuxcoin-bugfix-020811 smartcoin bitcoin
apt-get install linuxcoin-installer
apt-get install zenity
apt-get install linuxcoin-bugfix-110811

Yup Wink

Receiving when I try to startup.
Code:
GRUB loading.
Welcome to GRUB!

error: symbol not found: 'grub_divmod64_full'
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>

Any word on this drgr33n?

Thanks.

Some info here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1735231 I think it's just a corrupt install. I would just wipe the HDD and reinstall.

Alright, Ima start fresh of USB install as well as HDD install. I'll use dban to wipe the hdd, because I wiped the HDD with gparted twice and installed twice and got the same dang grub error. Ionno, I've had nothing but problems trying to get linuxcoin onto hdd, whether manual or that installer, bad luck I guess. I've used ubuntu since almost the beginning upto 9.04, some what familiar with the environment, never really had problems at all. I use debian now, but trying to get on linuxcoin is being a b*tch.

AMD released 11.8 today. Does anyone know anything about it? Does it fix the CPU bug?

If I follow the linuxcoin wiki procedures to

1. SSH X11forwarding, then
2. SettingupVNCremotely

will that allow me to reboot and manually start mining with a headless miner rig on my local network?

Ah, never mind. I see gopher has posted a most excellent wiki for creating a headless miner.

Just a note from my experience with headless remote linuxcoin mining...don't use VNC.  I would much rather use a GUI than command line, but it just isn't efficient on a remote mining rig.  You will be losing time and hashing.  Other than accepting the license agreement, everything you need to do can be done through ssh with command line.  Efficient remote administration is one of the big advantages of linux.
Good advice I'm sure. However, this linux ignoramous would need someone to do a SSH wiki of equal depth as gopher's VNC explanation or, alas, I could never make it happen.

I tried several times to install this on a 4GB Memory Stick.  Installs fine, I get the bootup menu, but then when it starts up my monitor says it can't display the resolution.  It's an old dell with a 1280x1024 max resolution.

I've read through this thread but so far haven't found any solution to this issue.

Other info:

Radeon 6870
ECS 945GCD-M(1.0) Intel Atom 330 Intel 945GC Micro ATX Motherboard/CPU Combo
1GB Ram

I saw that someone else in this thread ran into that issue, any progress?  I can get in via SSH fine, just can't get into the gui.

The installer works if you update zenity Cheesy I said this already !!

Ups, I missed that! The HDD install worked perfectly now when I did the following with the final version:

Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install linuxcoin-bugfix-020811 smartcoin bitcoin
apt-get install linuxcoin-installer
apt-get install zenity
apt-get install linuxcoin-bugfix-110811

Then System Tools => LinuxCoin Installer and wait ...  Smiley

wow, thats easier than my method! i will try this tonight on a new VM install, thanks guys!

I will try to sort thru my PXE changes too and post the significant differences.
