Hi,

I have a 64b Fedora 10 machine with a 5850. This has been successfully running beta4. I uninstalled that beta and replaced it with the 1.0 release and the 9.12 hotfix driver. Now, when I try to run the sample programs, they all segfault. For example:

# ./HelloCL
HelloCL!
Getting Platform Information
Platform::get() failed (-1000)
Creating a context AMD platform
Segmentation fault

# ./CLInfo
ERROR: cl:latform::get() (1)

I can revert to beta4 successfully.

Is this a known prblem, or perhaps there might be something incompatible left over from the beta4 installation?

Ta,

MJH

Basically the installation of v2 is not just drop-in like the previous release. You have to create some symlinks before it works.

yes you must register (create symlink to libatiocl.so in  /usr/lib/OpenCL/vendor) OpenCL driver because of IDC. read a instalation note.

That's got it going. Ta!
