oclHashcat 1.30 vs. Catalyst 14.10 on Linux

[buherator]

It definitely works on both 32 bit and 64 bit with ubuntu 12.04 (as recommended in the guide, I am unsure why you say you followed the guide, but you used ubuntu 14.04).

I tried both 12.04.4 and 14.04. The clinfo output with the beta driver on 12.04.4 is here: http://pastebin.com/niJ8igFx

There are some things that you need to double-check:
- clinfo output to troubleshoot (post it on pastebin and link it here s.t. we can check the version number of catalyst etc)
- make sure that no open source driver for the graphics cards is installed (they normally get shipped w/ the distros, but you need to uninstall them)

How can I know which drivers to uninstall? I grepped dpkg output and tried to remove xserver-xorg-video-* but it causes dependency issues. Also the wiki says that I should install xserver-xorg-video-ati for example.

- use this driver w/ oclHashcat 1.30 http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/de...=Linux+x86 ( linux-amd-catalyst-14.6-beta-v1.0-jul11.zip )

I forgot to mention this before: The beta driver works with some distros to a point but kills the graphics card output (I can only work through SSH) and after less than a second the oclHashcat process becomes unresponsive:

From this point I can't exit or kill the process and it doesn't seem to be doing anything useful. Edit: I also tried this with more hashes, it seems that after the first correct guess the process stops working.

- you shouldn't have many libOpenCL.so files on your filesystem, nor the AMD APP SDK installed, this most of the times gives some hard to troubleshoot conflicts
- if you still can't get it to work, you may get faster help on IRC's #hashcat channel ( http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=hashcat )

I didn't install AMD APP SDK but the clinfo output shows this line:

Version: OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (1526.3)
