Title: [RESOLVED] reaper, linux and Litecoin
Post by: EskimoBob on April 03, 2012, 07:31:05 AM
Reaper looks like a real deal but so far I have not managed to get it working properly with Litecoin.

It compiles, it bulds a kernel (make sure you add 'platform 1' to reaper.conf) but if you run the miner it refuses to do any real work

I also downloaded a precompiled version and all I get is this:

 
Code:
$ ./reaper 
./reaper: /usr/lib/libcurl-gnutls.so.4: no version information available (required by ./reaper)
\|||||||||||||||||||||/
-  Reaper v13 32-bit  -
-       BETA 3        -
-   coded by mtrlt    -
/|||||||||||||||||||||\

I compiled my version and the result is the same.

Any ideas how to get is running?

Welcome to the club, I get very similar results. The only advice I can offer at the moment is to use the compiled version for Windoze -- it works pretty well. Thankfully Reaper is open source and maybe somebody with the right skills will step forward and help mtrlt make it work on Linux.

It compiles just fine in Linux, maybe one day noobs coming to linux will actually take the time to learn how to compile software or go back to "windoze"

If I can compile this on MinGW-w64, then it should compile even better on Linux. Though I still got a few things to sort out with it.

Code compiles and even runs but it can not be used to mine no LTC. 
"Work too old..." and so on and on.
Do any of you know, how to fix it?

You might want to try to get longpolling activated.

Or, better yet, one on IRC and ask mtrlt or someone more knowledgable than me.

Those 2 obstacle are actually bugs but no one has bothered to fix them. I am not a programmer, so I can not do it. :)
Can you figure out wtf ia wrong wit the code and fix it?
