Kano,

11.04 x64 Xubuntu / kanoi-cgminer-aa7723e7 from your git repo

Installed 11.6, SDK 2.4, moved .h files, and am trying to configure using:

Code:

CFLAGS="-02 -Wall -march=native" ./configure

resulting in:

Code:

bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

I started basic by using copy and paste from the README file to make sure there weren't any typos, used sudo, and su, but it is still not working. I notice there is a configure.ac and a Makefile.am, but I can't get it to work. Any help would be grealty appreciated.

... and the step before that?
./autogen.sh ...

But huh? My repo? People use that?
I only ever get people to get code from my repo when conman/ckolivas goes walkabout.
The only time my repo would be useful rather than using the main repo would be when I've added something new and it hasn't been committed into the main one yet (rare)

Sorry, I'm not sure what kanoi-cgminer-aa7723e7 is ... (I can't find that number anywhere - though I'm not a git export either)
post a link so I understand what you're looking at.

Kano,

I haven't ever used autogen.sh in my previous installs. I use:

Updates

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev lib32gcc1 libc6-i386 lib32gcc1 libc6-i386 dkms openssh-server screen

Catalyst

Code:

chmod +x ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run

sudo aticonfig --od-enable

sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all
sudo reboot

SDK 2.4

Code:

sudo su
cd /opt
tar -xvzf /home/ubuntu/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64.tgz
cd AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/
cp -pv lib/x86_64/* /usr/lib/
rsync -avl include/CL/ /usr/include/CL/
tar -xvzf icd-registration.tgz
rsync -avl etc/OpenCL/ /etc/OpenCL/
ldconfig
sync
shutdown -r now

CGMINER

Code:

cd ~/Downloads
unzip ADL_SDK_3.0.zip
sudo cp include/*.h ~/cgminer-2.XX/ADL_SDK/

cd ~/cgminer-2.XX/
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native" ./configure

make

That method has worked fine for me over multiple reinstalls. Recently, I was reading through this thread and found your comment on 11.04 and versions of cgminer after 2.4.3:

Hi, What caused this after cgminer-2.4.3-x86_64-built? Have no any problem before 2.4.3. Thanks!

./cgminer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by ./cgminer)
./cgminer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by ./cgminer)

That's why I recently added xubuntu 11.04 builds of the binary in my git download for anyone who still uses ubu 11.04 or similar and doesn't want to build from source:
https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/downloads

Kano, sent some bitcs your way for saving me an OS upgrade. Seriously, why is it required to upgrade your OS for a new version of software? Shouldn't there be an easy way to just get the new GLIBC installed on an old version?

Thanks for the BTC

I keep making 11.04 binaries since my GPU/BFL rig is 11.04 based on my setup script in cgminer and I don't have any 7xxx GPUs (yet)

The GLIBC version ties in with the kernel, so updating GLIBC has a habit of hitting a brick wall at some stage after kernel upgrades stop on any linux distro version.

I'd certainly not want to try building a later GLIBC from scratch coz I'd expect there to be issues that either:
1) I'd not know about and thus be using a potentially buggy GLIBC
(I'd have to spend a lot of effort looking at all the changes in GLIBC and why they changed)
or
2) would show up as failing to build it on the 11.04 kernel (2.6.38-8) and thus most likely be lots of effort to resolve

It's all pretty much: lots of effort for no real gain for me, and building on 11.04 is simple enough for me with an 11.04 dev VM also.
(interesting for me also is that the binaries I build on 11.04 work on my desktop fc16 too where I have my 2xIcarus)

Thanks for the explanation, Kano. I figured it was coupled to the OS fairly tightly or else I would have been able to find some how-to googling, your explanation is a lot better than anything I found online.

cklovias, I understand that at some point you have to move on (although I don't know specifically what new feature was required in the newer version, I know you are smart enough to not just rebase to the new version for fun). My gripe is with the linux setup, not with your excellent software.

Thanks to both of you for all your work!

I used the link that you posted above to download the file I used. I clicked from there download as tar.gz . The file I downloaded was named: kanoi-cgminer-v2.1.0-1328-gaa723e7.tar.gz as a 6.40MB file. If I use the same method now I noticed the file name has changed to: kanoi-cgminer-v2.1.0-1337-g4abecc2.tar.gz but is still a 6.40MB file. When I extract the file I downloaded in 11.04 the file is named kanoi-cgminer-aa723e7 . I haven't compared it something from the main github although it does look similar from what I remeber. The issue is simply that it won't configure as obviously my methods are incorrect or that file doesn't contain the same items.

Any help would be grealty appreciated.
