Inaba, I'm having trouble 'not' using live.
Do I have to do the installation while running Ubuntu onto the USB stick? [meaning have and running a working version of Ubuntu before I could install it onto a USB stick]
After that do what this guide does... but first...
How do I SSH, must I do it in Ubuntu to Ubuntu or can I do it using Windows to Ubuntu?
Sorry, but I have no prior experience in Linux. So this is hard for me... thanks for your patience... really.
Topic: Ubuntu Natty Narwhal 11.04 Mining Guide / HOWTO - page 15. (Read 281450 times)
I was running fine using this guide with 1 6950, but after adding another one, and going back through all the install steps, I am now getting an error when I try to start the miner. It looks like both aticonfig and poclbm can see my cards...
~/poclbm$ ./poclbm.py
No device specified or device not found, use -d to specify one of the following
No device specified or device not found, use DEVICE=ID to specify one of the following
I'm sure I am missing something obvious, but any help is appreciated.
~/poclbm$ ./poclbm.py
No device specified or device not found, use -d to specify one of the following
- Cayman [1] Cayman
[2] AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 250 Processor[/color]
..., but then when I try to start it using phoenix, I get this (even though I am using the DEVICE=0 argument)...
~/phoenix$ ./phoenix.py -u
No device specified or device not found, use DEVICE=ID to specify one of the following
- Cayman [1] Cayman

You screen buffer is too small, you need to increase it in PuTTY. Don't ask me how to do that, because I don't use PuTTY (I use SecureCRT).
I set my buffer to 32000 lines of scrollback.

i set mine to 50000 lines. this is what i got: http://pastebin.com/rRr105GP
and i reinstalled ubuntu to be 100% sure it was not the updates that was causing this.
Does anyone know how to upgrade from SDK 2.1 to SDK 2.4?
Or install 2.4 in a separate location for testing purposes?
please help, thank you

Is anyone else getting crashes with settings above aggression 6 or 7 on ubuntu or xubuntu?
I am runnning all my GPUs on aggression 6 because otherwise it is instable, FASTLOOP also makes it instable. The whole box crashes and becomes unresponsive, after minutes, sometimes a few hours of uptime.
I use sempron 140 cpus and 2 gigs of ram.
Yes, that seems to happen to me too.I am runnning all my GPUs on aggression 6 because otherwise it is instable, FASTLOOP also makes it instable. The whole box crashes and becomes unresponsive, after minutes, sometimes a few hours of uptime.

are you by chance running linux from a flashdrive? I think this might be the reason
That can't be all of the output for lspci -v. I think it got cut off. It's missing a bunch of information. Specifically, none of your graphics cards are listed.
that was all i got, from top to bottom. what should i do? reinstall ubuntu and avoid updates?
There is no way that's all you got. You need to scroll up and get the rest of it.
You could also do lspci -v > output.txt and then copy the contents of output.txt to pastebin.
hers and image of the screen. there is no more scroll up:(

Yes, you can paste into PuTTY. I don't understand your second question, though?
If you are on the screen with the miner that is using the CPU, just use ctrl-c to kill the miner. Or, if you haven't backgrounded the process (which you probably haven't) just killing the PuTTY session and opening another one should kill it.

i use ubuntu 64bit.
do an lspci -v and put the output on pastebin. I am would like to see your config and if someone else also is having the same problem, the output of lspci -v as well.
ctrl-c
i accidentally started my CPU (DEVICE=0) mining, what is the command to turn it off?

You need to force aticonfig.
As stated in the guide, use sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all. Not sudo aticonfig --initial --adapter=all

thx. but i get this error when i enter sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all

I think I had that one too. I reinstalled Ubuntu, make sure you do not check the online update options. Just copy/paste the command strings one at a time and follow the guide precisely and it will work.
can you copy paste into the putty shell? i typed all that stuff in by hand
sorry to keep asking noob linux questions, but you say ctrl-c to shut down the CPU, but how would i do that in SSH? how do i point that at DEVICE=0?

Are you using a 64 bit distro or a 32 bit?
