Need help with the HOWTO: Ubuntu Server guide
#1
Hi,

Ive followed the guide here for ubuntu 14.04: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto

I used: ubuntu-14.04.5-server-amd64.iso instead of the ubuntu-14.04.4-server-amd64.iso.

I've got no errors throughout the guide, I'm right down at the bottom where it says: Finishing up, when i enter 
Code:
clinfo
i'm getting errors.


Code:
clinfo
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:809 kmod_module_insert_module() could not find module by name='fglrx'
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'fglrx': Function not implemented
Error! Fail to load fglrx kernel module! Maybe you can switch to root user to load kernel module directly
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:809 kmod_module_insert_module() could not find module by name='fglrx'
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'fglrx': Function not implemented
Error! Fail to load fglrx kernel module! Maybe you can switch to root user to load kernel module directly
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  156 ()
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19
  Serial number of failed request:  12
  Current serial number in output stream:  12

i tried:
Code:
sudo modprobe fglrx
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:809 kmod_module_insert_module() could not find module by name='fglrx'
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'fglrx': Function not implemented

more info:
Code:
lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Hawaii XT [Radeon R9 290X]
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Hawaii XT [Radeon R9 290X]
07:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Hawaii XT [Radeon R9 290X]

Code:
uname -a
Linux ubuntu 4.4.0-45-generic #66~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 19 15:05:38 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I tried purge & reinstall per guide again:
Code:
sudo apt-get purge fglrx*

I have 3x R9 290X's did the guide install the drivers? because the guide says so.. or do i need to install them? what steps do i need to do in order to get them visible in clinfo? Thanks

EDIT: So is 16.04 working for hashcat AMD for R9 290X's? http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_i...id-16.20.3
because it looks supported: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles...Notes.aspx
