I'm trying 2 days (more than 20 hours total) and cannot make this miner to work. I've been following guides but without results. Tried Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xbuntu (16.04) and 17.50 drivers and 18.10 drivers. Tried without ROCm, with ROCm included with drivers, ROCM from Github. Most I managed is for miner to report that there are correct number of gpus but cannot initialize them or something.
What is power consumption for vega 56 on stock settings (flashed to vega 64)? If my psu cannot handle 5 vega cards, better not to lose time any more.
You should not have spent so much time trying to get this miner to work if you're trying to multiple Vegas... ROCm has high PCI-E lane requirements that make it impossible to run multiple, and even without ROCm I've been unable to find a documented instance of someone running a large Vega Mining rig in Linux on the AMDGPU-PRO drivers, the support is just not there.
That's a big part of why I was pushing for windows support, not because I can't do Linux, but because Linux can't do Vega (at least not in any scalable way).
Kerney666 had a lyra2z kernel he dropped into SGMiner which was Windows compatible... unfortunately he won't be releasing that (and perhaps convinced OP it would be a bad idea to release for Windows, don't know what happened in PMs), and that was our best shot at this. I may try and take a stab at it myself, as unfortunately I don't think we'll get to that point with this miner.
