oclHashcat complaining with correct driver installed
#1
Hi,

I have Version 1.31 runnining on Ubuntu 14.04 with AMD Catalyst 14.9.

Somehow oclhashcat complains about a wrong driver version:

Code:
~/oclHashcat-1.31$ ./oclHashcat64.bin -b
oclHashcat v1.31 starting in benchmark-mode...

Device #1: Tahiti, 3022MB, 1050Mhz, 32MCU
Device #2: Tahiti, 3022MB, 1050Mhz, 32MCU
Device #3: Tahiti, 3022MB, 1050Mhz, 32MCU

STOP! Unsupported or incorrect installed GPU driver detected!
[...]

Installed driver

Code:
$ fglrxinfo
display: :0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
OpenGL version string: 4.4.13084 Compatibility Profile Context 14.301.1001

Code:
$ clinfo | grep -i "driver version"
  Driver version:                                1214.3 (VM)

Any hints what I did wrong?

The driver version for catalyst 14.9 is 1573...
version 1214.3 is much older and that version number should correspond to catalyst 13.6.

So you either have catalyst 13.6 installed, or AMD APP SDK installed and/or not cleanly removed the previous driver.

After you install the correct driver 14.9 you should see the version number as below:
$ clinfo | grep -i "driver version"
Driver version: 1573.4 (VM)

Forgot my last (now deleted) comment. It was the installed AMD APP SDK. This @#$% did some LD_PRELOAD magic and thus the driver fuckup.

Thanks again for the help!!

Glad it worked. Thread closed
