Hi, thank you very much for this great program. Last night I uninstalled amdgpu-pro then upgraded from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04. I then install amdgpu-pro 18.40-697810 with the --opencl=legacy command line option.
I'm now getting the 'Unknown OpenCL driver version' message while running phoenix in dual mode, eth and blake2s.
If I run it with -clKernel 0 I can mine eth but then no dual support.
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious but the search for this forum leaves much to be desired.

The current version of PhoenixMiner 4.2c supports AMD Linux drivers up to 18.40-676022 (your driver is the next one and is not supported by the released version). You need to uninstall amdgpu-pro and then download and install the 18.40-676022 drivers. We will add support for all newer drivers in the next release of PhoenixMiner but obviously nothing stops AMD from releasing newer drivers after that and therefore we recommend to avoid upgrading to drivers that are newer than the version of the PhoenixMiner you are using.
It is a fast miner, but has unpleasant issue: if during mining you loose internet connection - phoenix continues to mine! Shows "disconnected from pool", but gpus are loaded, and rig consumes power with no result. No good..
Tried ver.3.5 and new 4.2 - the same problem.
Claymore in same situation stops mining and release gpu load, so electricity not wasted.
Give it 3-4 minutes and it will stop mining. We don't immediately stop mining to avoid crashing if the connection is soon restored.
Tonight, stopped mining on RX 550 2 gb.

Add the following options:
-rvram -1 -eres 0 This will stop the check for minimum free VRAM and will not allocate bigger DAG buffer than necessary for the future DAG epochs.
hello whats the arguments to add the flag nvidia to the GPU1 and amd to the rest?
It's not quite clear what you are trying to achieve. If you are referring to the -nvXXX and -clXXX flags, they are only applied to the respective types of GPUs. If you want the same value for all AMD GPUs, just use a single value like:
-clkernel 2 which will set this for all AMD GPUs and won't affect the Nvidia GPUs at all. If want to achieve something else, please let us know to give more clear answer.
