I burned a new USB stick with the .5b image tonight, edited bamt.conf and the pools files, then applied the fixes via fixer.

The GPUs won't start mining, I'm getting the "No protocol specified" error.

Mother -v returns:

Running /etc/init.d/mine restart returns:

Running aticonfig --list-adapters returns

What did I miss, it seems like things should be running fine?

Thanks!

looks like xwindows isn't happy. try (logged in as root, never sudo):

/opt/bamt/start_mining pre

(let it sit there for a bit)

and

xauth merge /home/user/.Xauthority

all that happens on boot anyway, but sometimes if your rig boots slowly it can happen too soon.

the best test for if its fixed is:

atitweak -s

if atitweak can't list your cards, the ADL libs aren't working and BAMT isn't going to have any joy.
