Title: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 09, 2012, 02:37:10 AM Hey,
I want to offer 500LTC to the first person to give the source code for an LTC GPU miner. The code must be compilable on nVidia and AMD GPUs. I wanted to start this thread to get other people involved too. I think it may motivate ssvb to finish his miner quicker and release to the public if everyone is willing to pitch in some. So, if you want to pitch some money into this too, let the people out there who are working on LTC miners know with some offers. When the GPU miner is released I'll put the authors LTC address on here so you can offer your coin up to them. 2nd edit: Coblee has set up a reward address. Please forward all donations to this LTC address: Code: LgpuY1d6ncPkN9XYVGWraiohJXTqSKdqtL Or for BTC: Code: 1gpuEVUaML1pXEUNVeREnQqitfv1DeUMD edit: I may as well keep track of people willing to donate here too. List of People Giving BTC/LTC for a miner: TacoTime - 500 LTC tatsuchan - ? BTC/LTC Bitinvestor - 10BTC Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tatsuchan on March 09, 2012, 02:40:41 AM Hey, I want to offer 500LTC to the first person to offer the source code for an LTC GPU miner.

I will send the private key to the the person that delivers the source code. That seems to be a Litecoin address. Can we have a Bitcoin address too? Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 11, 2012, 06:57:30 AM I'm very much wondering if the Reaper miner for LTC is just a simple permutation of the regular Reaper miner... It doesn't look like it'd be very hard to port to LTC if someone had a day or two on their hands to dedicate to this, but I don't have time to play around with it.
http://solidcointalk.org/topic/425-reaper-v12-a-standalone-cpu-gpu-miner/ AppOpenCL.cpp/.h : Port the memory mappings to those required for LTC. reaper_????.cl : Port the scrypt.c hash code to CL ( https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer ) RSHash.cpp/.h : Port this from scrypt.c as well, for checking the block hash on work done by GPU. Reaper includes the genesis hash and related functions, but I'm not sure the miner uses it.

Mining LTC is slightly more profitable based on the average price of LTC right now, however most people would rather mine BTC as there is much greater liquidity and lower volatility (LTC price has been fluctuating on an order of magnitude for the past few months).

Try the 296.10/17 driver? http://www.techspot.com/news/47788-nvidia-releases-geforce-29617-for-windows-8-others-get-29610.html I'm on unix, I'll let it hang until it takes up 16GB of memory but it did that yesterday and nothing happened. A CUDA native code miner like bitcoinminercuda.cu would be nice. :/ Hopefully mrlrt can fix this.

Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 01:34:59 AM Could you boot into Windows, compile a binary for that card, boot back into your Unix distro(?), then let it go on that end?
Bitcoin miner does work, just not stably with VLC in the background. :-\ Still cannot connect to servers with Litecoin.

Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 14, 2012, 03:05:33 AM Okay, updated to the beta drivers and it compiles now.
I get about 55kh/s with a GTX460 and 120 kh/s with a GTX570. Kepler is coming out soon, which is supposed to have about 3 times the amount of stream processors. This should put Kepler GPUs somewhere competitive with AMD ones.

Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 04:29:45 AM Any idea on why it times out to server when I try to pool mine?
Solo mining isn't working out of the box either, but I'm expecting that's me screwing something up.

208 kH/s on a 7950 with aggression 12. With aggression more than 12 the stales shoot up. Power consumption increases by 60 Watts when the mining starts so that's not bad at all. Well done mtrlt! Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 03:43:11 PM Okay, lets make this official. How can I get reaperv13 beta3 to solo mine with the Windows Client 5.0.9 (litecoin-qt), or mine period, since it times out on every pool I put in. Whoever helps gets a cut of my first block or share.

What's your hardware and what error message do you get? Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 04:42:23 PM When solo mining, I get a "cannot connect to server" error, probably because I don't have a localhost server set up for mining. Poolside, I get a cannot connect to server error, but this time it's specifically a Error 28 timeout, which means that networking is pissy. Probably something to do with me having the Windows 8 Preview running, but since the CUDA fix was specificly released for it yesterday, I dunno...

It now works. 6kh/s give or take. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 14, 2012, 07:43:03 PM What was your parameters for kernel? default, i didn't play with it all. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 14, 2012, 07:52:47 PM Hey guys,
There are reports coming in of fried cards from the memory overheating on them. Be careful mining litecoin if you have no heatsinks on your memory (most reference designs that are rear exhaust do), check and make sure with a thermal diode that your memory isn't at a really high temperature. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: Cosbycoin on March 14, 2012, 08:05:23 PM Is this because scrypt uses lots of on board memory? ???

My 6970 crapped itself last night while mining LTC with Reaper. It might be co-incidence,but as Tacotime says,be careful! Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 09:10:45 PM I'd imagine that's it comes from the gfx card emulating a super cpu running full blast for hours on end. Fortunately for me, I took the bottom off the m11x and threw a cooling pad underneath, so it's good to go for a while. Workload can double and then some when I use 64 instead of 256, though. Toss in CPU and the family computer on Scyptminer, and I'm pulling... 20kh/s! :P
Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: moocow1452 on March 14, 2012, 10:55:32 PM Tacotime, did you ever get the Linux version compiled? Looking into doing some shopping around for gpu clouds, and a working linux bin would be nice.
EDIT: My bad. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 16, 2012, 11:00:36 PM Bump... The source code was released, so I don't see anything wrong with giving the reward out now.

Pretty sure there using this http://wiki.solidcoin.info/wiki/Reaper I'm assuming this was released by mrtlt (sp?). I will find him on IRC and give him the rewards.

Is the source compilable on nVidia and AMD GPUs? Who released it? mtrlt released it and yeah, it compiles on AMD and nVidia GPUs with the latest drivers and version. It's a little bit of a pain for 7xxx AMD GPUs and nVidia GPUs (aggression has to be set to 15 for it to work at all on nVidia GPUs), but it does work. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: coblee on March 19, 2012, 09:04:20 AM I talked to mtrlt over IRC and handed the private keys to him.

With my 6950 i make like 390khash/s Problem: computer is more or less unusable, like 0.1 FPS. But it works. Title: Re: LTC GPU Miner Source Code Reward Thread Post by: tacotime on March 19, 2012, 05:41:53 PM I talked to mtrlt over IRC and handed the private keys to him. Cool, thanks |
