Its because you've put a comma instead of a dot Cheesy

I just accepted the lincense, But now i got this error (both with default kernel and phatk)

Code:

[02/08/2011 17:22:17] FATAL kernel error: Failed to load OpenCL kernel!

Type sudo in before you run your phoenix line, only have to do it once, unless you change the kernel.

Thanks, got it working.

Thats strange that in the previous version, i didnt have to su root

It's because of the heightened security Wink

Thanks for your reply,

Can you answer my questions about the dummy plugs, and booting issues? I really appreciate your patient with newbies like me

No problem !! You don't need dummy plugs with linuxcoin. Some boards I've tested sometimes have troubles with more than three cards but this is due to a pci error. firstly I would update the bios of my motherboard. Second you can add the following to the append line as you boot. (Press tab on the boot option of choice

Code:

pci=noacpi

I've got a mirror setup and will post it as soon as I can figure out how to limit the bandwidth to 1Mb/s or my host will kill me. xD

as you can see the above didnt work so then i tried the smartcoin install information and it does install but moment i try to use command smartcoin it says

root@linuxcoin:~# smartcoin
bash: smartcoin: command not found
root@linuxcoin:~#

so i will wait till someone will tell me how to start smartcoin at this point or whatever needs to be done

Jen

Sorry I've put smartcoin in /opt/smartcoin/smartcoin

thank you have it working now , better hash rate than previous version

now to find out how to install cgminer among others to use smartcoin to do more testing

Jen

CGMiner is included in the final version.

Code:

cgminer

Don't forget to add your results to the wiki ...

Yea, I'll wait for the installer as I am receiving

Code:

root@linuxcoin: cp --preserve -R {bin,boot,etc,home,initrd,img,lib,lib32,lib64,opt,root,run,sbin,selinux,srv,usr,var,vmlinuz} /home/user/linuxcoin

cp:cannot copy a directory, 'home', into itself, '/home/user/linuxcoin/home'
cp:cannot stat 'initrd': No such file or directory
cp:cannot stat 'img' : No such file or directory

Its because you've put a comma instead of a dot Cheesy

cp --preserve -R {bin,boot,etc,home,initrd,img,lib,lib32,lib64,opt,root,run,sbin,selinux,srv,usr,var,vmlinuz} /home/user/linuxcoin

should be

cp --preserve -R {bin,boot,etc,home,initrd.img,lib,lib32,lib64,opt,root,run,sbin,selinux,srv,usr,var,vmlinuz} /home/user/linuxcoin

i downloaded LinuxCoin 0.2b-final and cant figure out how to start smartcoin with this version . does anybody know the commands to start smartcoin ?

Jen

You have to install it first.

Code:

cd /opt/smartcoin
./smartcoin_install.sh
smartcoin

Maybe it is a silly question, but maybe it is also easy answered... ;-)
I tried to get smartcoin working for me, but any of the lists where I should add/edit/delete something does not contain any predefined server or something else.
Also it seems that if I try to add something and call the list again to edit my entry it does not appear also.

What is going wrong here?

thanks a bunch, i really missed that.

Also do we need dummy plugs for our current linux drivers?

I remember from reading on http://blog.zorinaq.com, that we dont need dummy plugs now for linux.

However, i got a trouble booting linuxcoin with 4 x 5850s. After the boot screen, it just hang at the blank screen. It has a "_" on the top right corner. Upon tinkering with it, i found that it had something to do with X server.

While pulling my hairs out, i figured why not plugging my monitors to the cards. One monitor has VGA and DVI plug so i used all 3 monitors and it booted to desktop. Also, it switched to a different monitor for the desktop screen, not the original monitor when the computer booted from bios.

Does it mean i need dummy plugs ?

Or can someone explain/help me what i'm missing?

Thank you very much

ps. English isnt my native language, please ignore my horrible writing skills

Ok downloaded the new final and switched over 2 of my miners from the old betas of linuxcoin.
(did a full format of usb and full reinstall of new linuxcoin)
First few things I noticed ...

I still cannot save to the desktop even after doing
apt-get update
apt-get install linuxcoin-bugfix-020811 smartcoin bitcoin

then did a full reboot

I thought that was one of the bugfixes that was fixed...

specifically what i did was save my miner info to a file and gmail it to myself ... opened gmail and downloaded the file and could not save it to the desktop.

Noticed hashkill is still just a tar file under miners. If i want to try it i need to uncompress it, but when i tried to using any programs listed (in file manager) it would not do anything. Probably a rights issue ...

Other then that currently working ok ... when i rebooted the first time i got a error that flashed quickly by saying do a restart -t or something similar ...
went by very fast then rebooted
have not rebooted again on that machine and it is happily mining so i dont want to mess with it but thought i should mention it.

thanks for all your hard work on this release ..

There are fixes for the permissions error for the Desktop folder. Sorry it slipped my radar Wink

Just open up a terminal and type

Code:

sudo chmod 777 /home/user/Desktop

Hashkill has been precompiled and installed on the system. Just open up a terminal and type

Code:

hashkill

I left the source files there for anyone that wanted to recompile with custom CFLAGS etc.

Just tried the final version i got this error when i used Phoenix manually (either default kernel or phatk)

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./phoenix.py", line 123, in 
    miner.start(options)
  File "/opt/miners/phoenix/Miner.py", line 77, in start
    self.kernel = self.options.makeKernel(KernelInterface(self))
  File "./phoenix.py", line 112, in makeKernel
    self.kernel = kernelModule.MiningKernel(requester)
  File "kernels/poclbm/__init__.py", line 132, in __init__
    platforms = cl.get_platforms()
pyopencl.LogicError: clGetPlatformIDs failed: platform not found khr

What does it mean?

Thnks

ps. This is my phoenix command which worked fine with the previous version of Linuxcoin:

Code:

./phoenix.py -u http://yanz_1:[email protected]:8332/ -q 7 -k phatk BFI_INT VECTORS FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=11 DEVICE=0 WORKSIZE=256

It means you have not accepted the license or your running from the user account. if you look in system there's an icon called accept license. Click it and try again Wink

Well hell I don't know anything but i would ask did you remember to goto system tools --> then sdk license ...and accept it?

it looks like a error you might get if you had not accepted the SDK license
