Title: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: Jbanna on July 02, 2012, 07:18:06 AM Hey everybody,
I've been trying to setup ltc mining on ubuntu 11.04 with 4 6870's, sdk 2.7 and catalyst 12.6.. but have come to an impasse. . Everything is set up to mine with litecoinpool.org, but when I run I get.... jason@litecoin:~/Desktop/reaper$ ./reaper \|||||||||||||||||||||/ - Reaper v12 64-bit - - coded by mtrlt - /|||||||||||||||||||||\ Share thread started List of platforms: 0 AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing Using platform number 0 Using all devices 0 Barts Program built from saved binary. Creating 2 GPU threads 1...2...done 2012-07-02 03:15:56 Error with server: {"id":1,"error":{"code":-1,"message":"method not getwork"},"result":null} Activating long polling. Long polling URL: [/LP]. trying to parse. LP Path: /LP 2012-07-02 03:15:58 Error with server: {"id":1,"error":{"code":-1,"message":"method not getwork"},"result":null} 2012-07-02 03:16:00 Error with server: {"id":1,"error":{"code":-1,"message":"method not getwork"},"result":null} Is there any way to get around this? Thanks guys. Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: daybyter on July 02, 2012, 12:21:48 PM I don't know, how to get around this, but I can tell you, that I also got 2 kinds of curl errors, when trying to get work. At the moment, I've setup solo mining.
Maybe there's a better pool for GPU mining? Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: abbeytim on July 02, 2012, 01:14:20 PM thats reaper 12 you need reaper 13 to ltc mine
Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: Jbanna on July 02, 2012, 02:52:02 PM oh wow it is v12. Thank you! that was a major brainfart.
But now after having it set up correctly it only displays the first GPU (device 0) my litecoin.conf setting is host litecoinpool.org port 9332 user jbanna.5 pass 1 protocol litecoin worksize 256 aggression 16 threads_per_gpu 1 sharethreads 18 lookup_gap 2 gpu_thread_concurrency 6144 reaper.conf: kernel reaper.cl save_binaries yes enable_graceful_shutdown no mine litecoin Could it be a problem with the drivers? Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: dizzy1 on July 02, 2012, 09:28:15 PM In my experience it is. The drivers I have on my 3 5970 rig are 12.6 and 2.4 because after that I just got way too many problems. It is probably easier to use BAMT and manually run the miner. Either that or use windows.
Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: Jbanna on July 08, 2012, 05:07:26 PM hey dizzy1, thanks for the reply. I'm honestly having such a terrible time trying to get this to work. and now with LTC prices on the rise I NEED to get it working!!! I've been trying to use BAMT, but get OPENCL errors when trying to compile. So, I updated to SDK2.6, but still had openCL errors when running "make".
Have you (or anyone else for that matter) had success with BAMT? I'll put a 2 BTC bounty out for anyone who can help!

What I did was edit CMakeLists.txt and find each instance of: $ENV{AMDAPPSDKROOT} and replace it with /opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64 It starts on line 74 or so. For some reason setting the environment variable didn't help, but manually adding the path in did. I did a find-replace, as there are a few lines that need the replacement. Use your actual SDK path, of course (2.6?). Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: Jbanna on July 08, 2012, 06:30:02 PM cool, thanks for the replies guys.

So, are you doing this on a fresh install? No other drivers besides what come with? Title: Re: help: LTC mining in ubuntu Post by: Jbanna on July 08, 2012, 07:52:56 PM IT WORKED!
