Seems it only gives problem to those using GUIminer. I am using AOCLBF 1.75 & i so far didn't get any error, except strange Mhash/s variation which i already posted in this thread some posts back.
GUIminer users , try with AOCLBF to check that also gives you problem.

Topic: Modified Kernel for Phoenix 1.5 - page 11. (Read 96725 times)
What makes you so sure its phoenix and not the kernel? 7-11 kernel and 7-17 kernel = work perfectly. Swap out to 2.0 kernel, spams idle.
Btw I searched that thread you linked and didn't see any mention of idle bug. :/
edit: did some other searching and apparently someone mentione didle bug was fixed in 1.50 but guiminer v2011-07-01 uses phoenix 1.50 according to my console, so I don't know where to go from here.
If someone can figure out the problem and give steps to solve the idle bug with guiminer v2011-07-01, catalyst 11.7, opencl driver 2.5, win7 x64, and this kernel, i'll donate 0.25 btc to you. I would prefer to keep using phoenix in guiminer.

This is exactly what happens to mine too. guiminer 7-01-2011 with phoenix 1.5, using newest kernel in this thread, catalyst 11.7, win7 x64.
It just spams "Warning: work queue empty, miner is idle" in console.
I'm going to assume this kernel is either meant for an older miner, or its just plain broken. I'll be looking at this thread and diapolo's for an update. 12alu improvement is huge
, might be able to break 470 mhash on my 5870.edit: I thought you had to declare kernel arguments -after- the -k switch and argument after to declare what kernel to use.

BAH!.. I'll look through it, tonight I am going to a Sublime with Rome and 311 concert... so this weekend.
1st question, how is 0x2004000U in line 170 computed? Currently I don't get it

Basically, since only the last bit is different between the 2 nonces W3.x and W3.y, the first calculation done on those values is P2:
Code:
P2(18) = rot(W[3],25)^rot(W[3],14)^((W[3])>>3U);
So, basically, instead of flipping Bit 0 on W[3] and calculating both W[18].x and W[18].y, we can calculate W[18].x and W[18].y will be the same besides bits 25 and 14 being flipped
Code:
P2(18).x = rot(W[3].x,25)^rot(W[3].x,14)^((W[3].x)>>3U);
W[3].y = W[3].x ^ 1, therefore:
P2(18).y = P2(18).x ^ (rot(1,25)^rot(1,14)^((1)>>3U));
so, P2(18).y = P2(18).x ^ 0x2004000U;
W[3].y = W[3].x ^ 1, therefore:
P2(18).y = P2(18).x ^ (rot(1,25)^rot(1,14)^((1)>>3U));
so, P2(18).y = P2(18).x ^ 0x2004000U;

Alright, check the first post, I uploaded a second version today with a few tweaks (The Ma() tweak and slight reordering of some operations). It should be faster than diapolo's now.
Also, anyone who wants to help with this or has any suggestions, PM me and I'll be more than happy to discuss when I get the chance.
And... Diapolo (and anyone else who wants to help), if you read this... We should work together on trying to improve this
I think it is a good idea to keep separate code sources to increase the chances of finding optimizations, but if you have any questions about my code, let me know.-Phateus

1st is MSI Lightning 5870 @ 957/319, 1175mV.
2nd is Sapphire HD 5870 @ 939/313, 1163mV.
From your Phatk 2.0, i get 430 & 429. No change in any flags...
434 reduced to 430, But 427 increased to 429.

not working with Phoenix r101
Phoenix 1.5 includes the phatk kernel by default, unlike 1.4. Just use the included one. If you want more performance, phatk r112 from the Phoenix SVN is even faster.
