I tested oclhashcat last night and it can use one card (whichever one X is running on) and was able to show increased speed (about 10x faster than the CPU's) so I am sure it was actually using the GPU. > Do you use X environment or just console? I tried X and got segmentation faults with john so I figured I needed to run this in console mode. I can remove one card and see if that changes things. If I can get the card to work I will get a second one and see if the CrossFire will allow for increased usage. > Lukas > > 2012/11/6 Stephen John Smoogen <smooge@...il.com>: >> So I cobbled together a system to work with GPU's and am now trying to >> determine what is going on with it :). >> >> The system is an Asus motherboard with a AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955 >> processor and 2 video cards (a ATI 6850 and an ATI 5870).
