New Build with dual R9 290s - error
#1
Hey everyone,

Just built a new computer. i74930, 32 gigs, dual AMD R9 290s, and I was wanting to test out how this would do cracking some hashes. I have a test list, moved my dictionary and rules over, was about to begin a run and I got this..

ERROR: ./kernels/4098/m0000_a3.VLIW0.llvmir: No such file or directory

Anyone have any ideas on what I can do? I assume the cards are supported, but that could be an incorrect assumption. I'm running catalyst 13.11, might I need to change the driver?

Thanks for the help.

Need to wait for the next release.
#3
Ah, shoot. While I wish it's something I could fix now, at least I know and hope one is forthcoming soon.

Thanks for letting me know, appreciate it.

Just FYI, the 290x's had serious issues.
#5
yeah, we're ebaying all of our 290X's and sticking with 7970s for the foreseeable future. not enough time or patience to play games with AMD.

Darn, I did see your review (epixoip) on the 290Xs, really wish that they were better for you (and potentially by extension, myself as well). For the time being, hashcracking is more of a hobby/some fun research I try to do, so I can hold off at the moment swapping these cards out and hope that they work out well sometime in the (hopefully soon) future, but I guess we'll see if that happens.

Thanks for the help. I'll be interested to see where the cards are at when support is added into hashcat for them.
