Need help please...

I'm moving my miner over to linux. All is good except one odd thing...

When I run the new sgminer 4.2.2, it runs with my voltage at 0.875, engine at 300mhz & memory at 300mhz

Ive got a sgminer.conf in the same directory as sgminer with the correct settings: V=1.110 Engine= 1160 & memory=1498

even when I manually change these settings in sgminer they dont change.

I'm getting 100 hardware errors per second & I'm worried i'm gonna destroy the card like this....

I'm stumped, does anyone have any ideas/tips to troubleshoot this ?

Ubuntu 14.04
AMD stable drivers 14.4
AMD SDK 2.9
sgminer 4.2.2
ASUS 270x

Thanks

Use ubuntu 12.04, 14.6 beta drivers( install through gui), latest sgminer v5.
I use r9 280x's and works a treat. Don't bother with Ubuntu 14.04 - spent over a day trying to troubleshoot. xubuntu 12.04 I was up and running in under an hour.

*edit if you want to keep trying that sounds like the kernel isn't loaded - shouldn't be getting hw errors!*

try this build: git clone https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer.git && cd sgminer && git checkout v5_0

build instructions:
git submodule init
git submodule update
autoreconf -i
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native" ./configure
make

v5 let's you specify the kernel when you add a pool. For X11 use darkcoin-mod
