oclHashcat on debian 8 : Unsupported driver detected - harfang - 06-11-2015

Hi,

I'm trying to install oclHashcat v1.36 on my Debian 8, with an AMD card (radeon HD 6950). I saw that the supported driver for oclHashcat v1.36 is 14.9. Fortunetly, the available non-free amd driver on debian 8 is catalyst 14.9. So let's go, I followed these instructions:
https://wiki.debian.org/fr/ATIProprietary#Debian_8_.22Jessie.22

I'm now trying the examples provided with oclHashcat, but everytime I'm told:
"ATTENTION! Unsupported or incorrect installed GPU driver detected!"

With the --force option, the programm seems to work correctly, but I'd like to know why oclHashcat don't like my driver.

Do you have an idea why I'm getting this error message? Is there something I can do to check if my installed and used driver si really catalyst 14.9?

Thank you.

Remove whatever you have installed, then follow the steps at http://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto#install_amd_catalyst

But note that Debian is not officially supported by AMD.
