Topic: Using Linux 3 6970 video cards in Ubuntu, have issue (Read 1566 times)
Did you follow the guide? It works!
I read with XP dummy plugs are not needed. But i guess its back to linux since XP and server is a POS and will only blue screen on install no matter what I do, F6 drivers, ide, etc. Anything wont work. Never in my life have I had this problem with XP and i've installed 100s of systems with XP that have SATA and various hardware. USB install maybe?
Since i'm back to Linux
got the miner program to work but it detects none of my GPUs
that command you gave does this
Code:
mike@GuiMiner1:~/poclbm$ sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
Uninitialised file found, configuring.
PowerXpress error: Cannot stat '/usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibGL': No such file or directory

restarted and got this bastard error again
ImportError: libOpenCL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
a link of that name exists in the same directory as libOpenCL.so, that fixed it now it is simply ignoring that file it seems....................................
This is the most frustrating annoying day i've ever had working on a computer.
Try:
Code:
sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo reboot
sudo reboot
This should actually work... I had the same issue.
couldn't get it to work, i'm going to try windows. I am a Linux novice and that didn't hand hold enough i guess :/
This shouldn't matter in linux, I'm guessing the command I offered didn't help?
Is this the guide you followed?

If not I suggest wiping and starting over and following this guide if that's not a big deal.
Good luck.

If I start with any of the video cards attached to a monitor the individual one works, is there any way to create a "dummy" monitor for each video card?
Try:
Code:
sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo reboot
sudo reboot
I installed the ATI drivers but when I go to CCC it shows 3 video cards but the other two cards who as "unknown adapter".
Do I have to attach the crossfire cables to the cards? I didn't think I had to.
How do I get the other 2 recognized as 6970s?
