Hashrate display is fixed on latest build, good job!

Another problem I observed with my own kernel (DiaKGCN), if I use a 7970 (Tahiti - GCN) seperate everything is okay, if I use a 6550D (BeaverCreek - VLIW5) everything is okay, but if I try to use both of them together there seems to be a problem.

Code:
[general]
autodetect = +cl -cpu
backend = http://XYZ:XYZ@pool.bitlc.net
ratesamples = 100
verbose = true

[cl:0:0]
disabled = false
kernel = diakgcn
aggression = 12
goffset = true
vectors2 = true
vectors4 = false
vectors8 = false
worksize = 256

[cl:0:1]
disabled = false
kernel = diakgcn
aggression = 12
goffset = true
vectors2 = false
vectors4 = false
vectors8 = true
worksize = 128

Hashrate for each device is ~540 MH/s + 60 MH/s, which should lead to ~600 MH/s for the above config. Real displayed rate is only 114 MH/s, so it seems the kernel does not use the supplied settings for each device but perhaps uses only the last supplied parameters (here for [cl:0:1]. Could well be a problem of my init / kernel, but could also be a general problem. Any ideas?

I'm going to need more info to figure this one out. Multiple kernels is working fine on one of my rigs with a 5870 + 5830.

Things to check:
Can you try this using opencl and/or phatk2 kernels for both devices?
What load % are you getting on each GPU?
Is the CPU load % being maxed out? (perhaps a bug in the CPU detection code you submitted?) "autodetect = +cl -cpu" would use the CPU if the detection code doesn't work.
