I've had the Claymore miner running in Windows 7 for a month, on 2 GPU's.  Quite happy. 

Now I want to expand my little mining operation and add some Linux/Ubuntu machines.

I've had a terrible time getting the AMD drivers to work in Ubuntu 14.04.  Ubuntu 16.04 does not support Crimson 15.12 and never will, according to what I've read.

- Are there plans to support the new AMDGPU drivers that are supported in 16.04 Ubuntu?

If anyone has a good set of instructions for bringing up a Linux machine to run Mining, I'd love to hear it.  I'd even donate. 

I've got $1K+ of hardware sitting idle because of this, and I'd prefer not to give Mr. Gates money for every machine I build.

Thoughts?

amdgpupro installation: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Install.aspx

after that go for genoils ethminer: https://github.com/Genoil/cpp-ethereum/blob/master/README.md

Claymore Miner isn't working with amdgpu-pro yet.

Thanks for the Linux support!

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 and amdgpu-pro_16.30.3-315407 with a RX 480 ref
No ADL installed - so its fine that I get an error for that when I start the miner.

so it seems the same like for the other linux folk over here with RX* cards. Genoil Ethminer is running fine though.
