Thank you. Yes, I installed AMDOverdriveCtrl right away; didn't want to overcook my new Radeon card. Underclocked memory to 300mhz, GPU temp holding steady at about 69C now. Makes a great spaceheater!
Would like to get Phoenix and BFI_INT working on this solo mining testbed. According to the lengthy Phoenix thread it should work. But I still get: Failed to connect...
phoenix$ python phoenix.py -u http://USER:PASS@192.168.1.2:8332 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT DEVICE=1 WORKSIZE=128

If you want to solomine you run your bitcoin client like:
in the .bitcoin directory you make a textfile named bitcoin.conf with the following text:
rpcuser=yourrpcusername (make a name)
rpcpassword=yourrpcpassword (make a password)
rpcallow=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8332
and start you bitcoinclient like: sudo ./bitcoin -server
and in the phoenixminer use rpcuser/password like: python phoenix.py -u
http://RPCUSER:RPCPASSWORD@127.0.0.1:8332 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT DEVICE=1 WORKSIZE=128
then you can start solomining
