amd-gpu-pro update

[atom]

Just updated amd-gpu-pro from amdgpu-pro_16.30.3-306809 to amdgpu-pro_16.30.3-315407 and it still sucks.

Still required i386 architecture to be enabled
Still fails to compile -m 1800

new one is amdgpu-pro-16.40-348864.tar.xz, still no good?

Still required i386 architecture to be enabled - but I just found out you can hack the install script pretty easily. You just need to remove the amdgpu-pro-lib32 package in the Ubuntu switch case
Still fails to compile -m 1800 - Can't test anymore since I've workaround that issue in the OpenCL kernel

Thanks for the info.. so is there any working solution for the old R9 290X's to run hashcat in 16.04 Ubuntu you think?

[atom]

I did some more tests with 16.40. Here's some log from IRC:

15:30:12 @atom | with amd-gpu-pro 16.40 amd is back where they left with the great catalyst 15.12, speedwise
15:30:46 @atom | so we finally can recommend ubuntu 16.04 even for amd
15:31:24 @atom | (including linux kernel 4.4)

Here's the comparison sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...=133823274

ahh, can you kindly post the install script w/ i386 architecture removed? I wanna install on a clean 16.04 Ubuntu

[Hopelessone]

OK... I see the script, amdgpu-pro-16.40-348864/amdgpu-pro-install will just removing all instance of amdgpu-pro-lib32 work?

e.g. from:

Code:

function os_release() {
[[ -r  /etc/os-release ]] && . /etc/os-release

case "$ID" in
ubuntu)
PACKAGES="amdgpu-pro amdgpu-pro-lib32 amdgpu-pro-dkms"
;;
steamos)
PACKAGES="amdgpu-pro-driver amdgpu-pro-lib32 "`
`"glx-alternative-amdgpu-pro amdgpu-pro-dkms"
;;
*)
echo "Unsupported OS" | stderr
exit 1
;;
esac
}

to this:

Code:

function os_release() {
[[ -r  /etc/os-release ]] && . /etc/os-release

case "$ID" in
ubuntu)
PACKAGES="amdgpu-pro amdgpu-pro-dkms"
;;
steamos)
PACKAGES="amdgpu-pro-driver"`
`"glx-alternative-amdgpu-pro amdgpu-pro-dkms"
;;
*)
echo "Unsupported OS" | stderr
exit 1
;;
esac
}

would that be correct @atom?

[atom]

Yes, that's all I did. I'm using ubuntu 16.04 server 64 bit

Thanks!! awesome.. I was waiting for you

So all i'm gonna do is follow this guide: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto
 and swap out the drivers.. fingers crossed she works

Why do I have to run hashcat as root!

With a normal user on headless 16.04 i get..

Code:

/hashcat -b -m 2500
hashcat (v3.10-687-gcb6e210) starting in benchmark mode...
