Subject: Re: Multiple GPU and Fork

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS and In this case I had X running.
So, I disabled the x11-common service and added the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" to /etc/default/grub. Upon restart the
system does not start X.
I launched JtR, but the same behavior. Interesting, without X, JtR is
slower starting ... on a different topic not having X breaks oclHashcat1.36
- ADL_Overdrivev5_CurrentActivity_Get()

Any other things I could try?

PS: I am running this version of Ubuntu and Cat Driver (14.9)  in order to
have the latest oclhashcat capability.

Thank you,
Luis
