Installing ATI drivers, AMD APP SDK, CAL++, and Pyrit on Kali Linux 1.05 from start to finish.
I made this how-to in an attempt to gather all the information needed to get cpyrit working on Kali and have it all in one place. Most of the tutorials I have come across are for BackTrack or are focused on one aspect of the process, for example ATI driver installation. I am by no means an expert on the subject, and I have used other tutorials as a guideline. I made this primarily as a reference for myself, but I would like to share it in hopes that someone might find it useful.
This tutorial assumes the following:
- You are running a clean install of Kali Linux 1.05 x64. A non clean install may cause issues, as well a different version or architecture may have some differences.
- You have an AMD Radeon HD 5xxx or 6xxx series GPU. Series 3xxx or 4xxx require legacy ATI drivers which I do not cover here. Series 7xxx may need some further workarounds.
- You are running as root and have some knowledge of Linux command line usage.
Installing ATI drivers:
Credit goes to blackMORE. Most of this was directly copy and pasted from his original post.
Step 1: Remove any previous version of the drivers:
If you are not using a clean install of Kali (not recommended), you may need to clean up previous fglrx drivers.
Step 2: Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list to look like this:Code:apt-get remove --purge fglrx fglrx_* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-dev* xorg-driver-fglrx
Step 3: Update your sources:Code:# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 _Kali_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20130315-11:02]/ kali contrib main non-free # deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 _Kali_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20130315-11:02]/ kali contrib main non-free deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib ## Security updates deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
Step 4: Install Linux headers:Code:apt-get update
Step 5: Attempt installation of ATI drivers:Code:apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,')
You will get the following error:Code:apt-get install fglrx-driver fglrx-control fglrx-glx fglrx-atieventsd fglrx-modules-dkms
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.7-trunk-amd64 (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/12-6+point/build/make.log for more information.
Step 6: Patch fglrx module:
When successful you will see:Code:cd /root wget http://www.blackmoreops.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/fglrx-3.71.patch cp /var/cache/apt/archives/fglrx-modules-dkms_1%3a12-6+point-3_amd64.deb /root mkdir -p extract/DEBIAN dpkg-deb -x fglrx-modules-dkms_1%3a12-6+point-3_amd64.deb extract/ dpkg-deb -e fglrx-modules-dkms_1%3a12-6+point-3_amd64.deb extract/DEBIAN cp fglrx-3.71.patch extract/usr/src/fglrx-12-6+point/ cd extract/usr/src/fglrx-12-6+point/ patch -p0 < fglrx-3.71.patch

Hunk #8 succeeded at 4088 (offset -2 lines).
Step 7: Repack and install fglrx module:
When successful you will see:Code:cd /root mkdir build dpkg-deb -b extract/ build/ cd build dpkg -i *.deb
DKMS: install completed.
Step 8: Initial configuration:
Step 9: Configure GRUB:Code:aticonfig --initial -f
Open /boot/grub/grub.cfg with your favorite text editor. Look for a section that begins with:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
In that section there will be a line similar to this one:
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.7-trunk-amd64 root=UUID=7f79eea2-1668-407f-b7ed-d5613fecd26c ro initrd=/install/gtk/initrd.gz quiet
Append radeon.modeset=0 to the end of the line so it looks like this:
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.7-trunk-amd64 root=UUID=7f79eea2-1668-407f-b7ed-d5613fecd26c ro initrd=/install/gtk/initrd.gz quiet radeon.modeset=0
Save the file and reboot.
Step 10: Check if fglrx module is installed:
You should get a response similar to:Code:lsmod | grep fglrx
fglrx 2635205 82
button 12945 1 fglrx
Installing AMD APP SDK:
Step 1: Download AMD APP SDK v2.7 from:
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-s...nload-archive/
Step 2: Install the SDK:
Step 3: Edit /root/.bashrc, add the following lines to the end of the file:Code:mkdir amdappsdk cp AMD-APP-SDK-v2.7-lnx64.tar amdappsdk/ cd amdappsk tar -xvf AMD-APP-SDK-v2.7-lnx64.tar ./Install-AMD-APP.sh
Save and quit, then issue the following command:Code:# AMD APP SDK export AMDAPPSDKROOT=/opt/AMDAPP export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/opt/AMDAPP/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${AMDAPPSDKROOT}lib/x86_64:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} export ATISTREAMSDKROOT=$AMDAPPSDKROOT
Code:source ~/.bashrc
Installing CAL++
Step 1: Install prerequisites:
Step 2: Download calpp 0.90 from:Code:apt-get install cmake libboost-all-dev
http://sourceforge.net/projects/calp...ar.gz/download
Step 3: Install CAL++:
Edit CMakeLists.txt:Code:tar -xvf calpp-0.90.tar.gz cd calpp-0.90/
Find the lines starting with FIND_LIBRARY and FIND_PATH and replace them with this:
Save and quit, then issue the following commands:Code:FIND_LIBRARY( LIB_ATICALCL aticalcl PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}" ) FIND_LIBRARY( LIB_ATICALRT aticalrt PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}" ) FIND_PATH( LIB_ATICAL_INCLUDE NAMES cal.h calcl.h PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}/include/CAL" )
Code:cmake . make make install
Installing Pyrit
Step 1: Install prerequisites
Step 2: Remove existing installation of pyritCode:apt-get install libpcap-dev
If you are not using a clean install of Kali (not recommended), you may need to issue the following command:Code:apt-get remove --purge pyrit
Step 3: Download pyritCode:rm -r /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cpyrit/
Step 4: Install pyritCode:svn checkout http://pyrit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pyrit_svn
Step 5: Install CAL++ pluginCode:cd pyrit_svn/pyrit/ ./setup.py build install
Edit setup.py:Code:cd ../cpyrit_calpp/
find VERSION = '0.4.0-dev' and replace with VERSION = '0.4.1-dev'
find CALPP_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(CALPP_INC_DIR, 'include')) and replace with CALPP_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(CALPP_INC_DIR, 'include/CAL'))
Save and quit, then issue the following command:
There will be several warnings, but hopefully no errors and everything will be installed.Code:./setup.py build install
Step 6: Test cpyrit
...Code:pyrit list_cores
The following cores seem available...
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE''
#2: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
...Code:pyrit benchmark
Computed 7548.89 PMKs/s total.
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 5599.3 PMKs/s (RTT 1.4)
#2: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 685.6 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 688.5 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 691.9 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
