4 graphic cards->ok, 5 graphiccards -> not ok
#1
Hy

First i would like to say thank you for quick support in your IRC channel Big Grin
Now i encountered problem, which i guess is better to be discused here...

What is bothering me:

If i install 4x hd5970 on my MB (890FXA-gd70) everything runs ok.
clinfo output is OK,
aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all is able to display temps of all gpus.
oclhashcat runs OK.

When i install 5th hd5970 and after aticonfig --adapter=all --initial -f and reboot:

clinfo output:
PHP Code:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all is not able to display temps of additional graphic card (look at the bottom of code):
PHP Code:
pozi@ubuntu:~$ aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all Adapter 0 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 60.50 C Adapter 1 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 67.00 C Adapter 2 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 61.00 C Adapter 3 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 62.50 C Adapter 4 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 59.50 C Adapter 5 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 61.50 C Adapter 6 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 30.50 C Adapter 7 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series Sensor 0: Temperature - 36.00 C ERROR - Get temperature failed for Adapter 8 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series ERROR - Get temperature failed for Adapter 9 - AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series

but aticonfig --lsa recognise all of them:

PHP Code:
pozi@ubuntu:~$ aticonfig --lsa * 0. 1b:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 1. 1a:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 2. 17:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 3. 16:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 4. 0f:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 5. 0e:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 6. 0b:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 7. 0a:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 8. 07:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series 9. 06:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 5900 Series

and lspcie too...

Problem is not graphic card or slot related- i tried every possible combination, it occurs only when i install 5th card.

What i did:
set PCIE latency timer in bios to 96 and 128, neither solves problem

Other informations:

PSU: LEPA 1600W 80plus (there is plenty of wattage unused)
I use PCIE risers, i tested them all and they are working as supposed to.
OS: Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 LTS
catalyst: i have tried 14.9 and 14.12, same problem at both of them
oclHashcat: version 1.31

Can someone please give me some advice? It seems a shame not to use all 5 graphic cards.

Thanks in advance!
