All,
Could use the community's help. I'm a professor who had a student start a hashcat server (higher end with 8-dual GPUs), but was unable to finish it before he had to leave. Now I am picking up from where he left off. What I need help with is finishing the install to identify ALL 8 R9 290X cards.
Know I am not a gamer, or a Linux guru, by any sense but I get by. Where I need the help is trying to get all 8 card recognized by the OS'.
Here is what has been done so far:
1) Installed Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS on one drive, Windows 8.1 on the another
For the Ubuntu:
2) Installed fglrx
3) I believe the correct AMD drivers are loaded… But could use the commands to confirm (aticonfig doesn't seem to have a --ver command)
4) Currently running oclhashcat 2.01 but no reason I couldn't bump up to 3.0 (just released)
For Windows:
5) Removed/installed drivers per the wiki page HOWTO: Upgrading AMD Drivers on Windows
6) Couldn't get 8.1 to see more then 4 cards
First Q:
Is there any limitation to running more then 4 graphic cards, in either Ubuntu LTS or Windows (8.1)? Reason I ask is that neither seem to be identifying more then 4 cards. I Plan on having a dual-boot setup where I can run Hashcat 3.0 from both, for testing purposes…
Second Q:
Are the (8) R9 290X cards being seen by the system?
On Ubuntu here is what I am seeing:
sensors: (I think this is showing me the (8) R9 290X cards, am I correct?)
