So how you managed to get those all 6 cards to work ?
I tried BAMT, SMOS, NotSMOS and just about every usb-bootable distro I could find, none of them worked with 6gpu's.
Disabling the on-board graphics in my bios, then installing ubuntu without a graphical envorionment did the trick. When enabling a desktop environment during install I could only ever get 5 cards running, please don't ask me why.
After installing ubuntu I installed xdm and xorg, installed the Catalyst drivers and SDK per instructions here, create a rc.d/xinit per the instructions here and bob's your uncle.
I have no idea why manually installing and doing everything would work different than using bamt/whatever, but hey, it works.
When I just started I tried Windows 8.1 for a while, but that would only hold out for a couple of hours and then suddenly no longer recognise the 6th card. Also, Windows 8.1 is for tablets, screw text that's 150% too big and that silly tile stuff.
It's been running a couple of days no at a steady 5MH/s with none of the problems I had with Windows or BAMT.
Got half of my rig built and working the way I want now, running around 5Mh/s, WU isn't as good as I want yet but I'll tackle that problem later.

Getting cgminer to detect my GPUs headlessly was a pain in the ass, not a single guide I could find contained all the info needed.

I'm running 5x Gigabyte R9 290 at 854kh/s each ( http://dump.chiko.nl/g/09fbac.png ) using sgminer with linux (Litecoin BAMT) and 1GB of RAM.

Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com
How do you add these commands?
Add:
Code:
"scan-time": "1",
"expiry": "1",
"queue": "5",
"expiry": "1",
"queue": "5",
To your cgminer.conf file.
Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com
--kernel zuikkis
Gives me good performance. Also you need a bit of time for WU to stabilise.

Took it for a spin, this happened http://dump.chiko.nl/g/a4e744.png
I do like how those .cl files have a function called shittify()
Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com
Did you try gpu-thread: 2 and xintensity with your hw-configuration
and one of the experimental kernels in sgminer ?
You can reach over 90% of your hashrate for WU:
I have got
1.18MH/s and 1100WU
1.40MH/s and 1297WU

I noticed there's a /kernel folder with a couple files in there (alexkarnew.cl alexkarold.cl ckolivas.cl psw.cl zuikkis.cl) but to be honest I wouldn't know how to tell sgminer to use one of them.
My config is:

"intensity" : "20",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "512",
"kernel" : "scrypt",

I'm pretty happy the graphs on Clevermining are now a lot more realistic, I guess patience isn't my strongest point

Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com
Wow, thanks for the replies guys, wasn't expecting an answer so quick 
My stats are here: http://www.clevermining.com/users/16GYFXDxHRnZqWCMLBctA53Vj9pueCquvM
It's been running a little longer now: http://dump.chiko.nl/g/05f94d.png
One of the reasons I'm asking about this is because I'm using BAMT and have seen some posts about BAMT or SMOS, or similar, have contained scripts to mine for their own profits somehow.
Luckily I don't need to worry about power usage, the only thing I need to worry about is how to get my sixth GPU to work, it doesn't show up in dmesg, but that's an entirely different story.
Edit:
Oops, that was indeed in my config, I kicked it out.

Edit:
SS:66 ----> seems to be that your miner decide which share is stale (thats bad) let the server decide it!
You are mining in a switching pool !!
"no-submit-stale" : true, in the sgminer.conf ?

Re: [ANN][AUTO-SWITCH] Profit-switch auto-exchange pool: CleverMining.com
Can anyone shed some light on the following?
My rig is reporting 4.2Mh/s average ( http://dump.chiko.nl/g/b1a725.png ) yet on the website it says 2.7 ( http://dump.chiko.nl/g/7983b5.png )
This may be paranoid, but I'm starting to think maybe my sgminer binary is skimming off my hashrate somehow.
