Help Troubleshooting (8) R9 290X Hashcat Sever

[Professor]

Do you have 4g decoding enabled in the bios? Are you running 32 bit or 64 bit?

Q1: There is no limit really. Currently right now I have a box on my desk with 9 Nvidia 1080s in it. Sagitta HPC sells a commercial solution with 8 GPUs in it.

Q2: Doesnt look like it. You could do 'lspci -vvv | grep AMD' to see if 8 entries show up.

You'll probably want to install AMDAPPSDK.

Have you followed this: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto

darkseid4nnk, thanks for the quick reply!

Above 4G Decoding is enabled.

Here is the output of the lspci
$ sudo lspci -vvv | grep AMD

I believe this is showing only 4 of the cards (slots 4,5,8,9?)

I will see about installing AMD's SDK...  will report back when it's done.


And the link supplied was the one I started with...  no joy after doing that.
