can't get more than two GPUs to work

[ragequit]

Using Suse 12.3
catalyst 13.4
oclHashcat 1.0

4x Asus DirectCUII 7970

Code:

aticonfig --list-adapters
* 0. 01:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
  1. 02:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
  2. 03:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
  3. 04:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series

* - Default adapter

trouble seems to center around card 0 and 1...
If I do a --adapter=2,3 during initial config all is well, I get 2 devices working when I use hashcat.

--adapter=all, hashcat freezes unless I comment out the

Code:

BusID "PCI:x:0:0"

lines in xorg.conf. Then I just get one device.

additionally, X doesn't load unless I comment out the BusID lines....

Any ideas???

[powderspecial600]

I am using Suse 12.3 as well. I had some similar trouble as it appeared the xorg.conf file was not being modified correctly. I was manually writing to it as you are until I discovered I should delete the xorg.conf file and let the amdconfig generate a brand new file. Once I did that it worked for me.

I'm afraid that didn't work for me.

[ragequit]

well, it looks like a bad card.
If I switch the monitor cable to card 2 and boot, I get red bars shortly after power-on and then X crashes after a bit with red garbage all over the screen.

Turns out that the cards are not labeled the way I expected. BusID 01:00.0 is the SECOND card not the first....

bummer.

[powderspecial600]

Yes it is kinda tricky sometimes to determine which bus id corresponds to which card.
