I have compiled the Mac OS X wallet binary for BillionCoin-Qt. You can download the DMG for the wallet here: http://www.johnchapman.net/?ddownload=3886I have a forked version of the BillionCoin project here with the adjustments for Qt 5.0 and OS X: https://github.com/chapmanjw/bil. I have submitted a pull request if the developers would like to merge this into the main codebase.

If anyone is interested, I have compiled a Mac OS X version of the SolarCoin-Qt wallet: http://www.johnchapman.net/?ddownload=3643Let me know if you have any issues with the wallet. -- SLR: 8PvmL9gNtHUiFKJc6B7sDnfuLTqgX6FrSS

Happened to be at my machine when it came through on the feed from GitHub :-) Also have it scripted and all I have to do is enter the build date

CudaMiner for OS X has been updated to run without requiring Xcode, MacPorts, and other setup steps. For binaries and instructions see http://www.johnchapman.net/cudaminer/PrerequisitesCudaMiner for OS X previously required installing Xcode and MacPorts, in addition to a number of configuration steps. These are no longer required.

@cbuchner1: Is it possible to set the "intensity" for CudaMiner like cgminer and other GPU miners? When I am doing other things on my machine, it would be nice to have a way to lower its resource utilization.
-i 1 = useable pc -i 0 = somewhat useable pc Yea, that's only slightly better for me with -i 1. Still slows things down quite a bit and can't really do work while its mining.

Hi all. I posted a 2014-02-18 release that will not barf when it finds a Maxwell. This doesn't mean that it was optimized for Maxwell (it wasn't!), but it runs. Previously you had to force it to use either the T kernel (scrypt, scrypt-jane) or the K kernel (best for keccak) in order to run. Now it's selected automatically instead of just crashing. Also CTRL-C terminates the program much faster when mining on a stratum server. Same for the --time-limit option. Oh, and Autotune does something on Keccak. I just don't think it's of much use  You still need to pass a large -L parameter because otherwise the (unnecessarily allocated) scrypt scratchpad limits the maximum number of warps we can run this with. Let me know if my changes broke anything else for you... Christian The 2014-02-18 release for Mac OS X is available here: http://www.johnchapman.net/crypto-currency/cudaminer-2-18-2014-release-now-available-for-os-x-10-6-10-7-10-8-and-10-9/

has anyone tried compiling with cuda 6.0 yet?
For me it worked, but resulted in poorer performance than 5.5.

Using CUDA 6.0 with my GeForce GT 650M (1024MB) on OS X (MacBook) seems to have reduced my performance. Any suggestions on other configuration options that might work better with 6.0?
Thanks!
Burn it, burn it with fire! Not the Macbook. CUDA 6.0! I bake a Macbook Pro in the oven once (PCB only)... the Geforce 8400M issue (defective nVidia chip). Afterwards it worked for 2 more months  Christian With the performance decrease, the temperature of the GPU is also decreased. So, there is at least that, LOL. Went back to 5.5, back to 70+ Kh/s.

3 ASUS ROG MARS cards are ordered. This should be close to 20 kHash/s YAC mining power - all on one mainboard.
I'm curious to see what your results will be with those as I'm currently experimenting with Yacoin and GTX760's (one 2gb and one 4gb). I'm one bad decision away from dropping some cash and putting a proper rig together. I have 6 slots...should be able to run 6 r7 240s on my board. But yeah, those Mars look amazing! They should use CudaMiner performance in their marketing specs: http://promos.asus.com/us/ROG/MARS760/;-)

These boxes aren't called troll boxes for no reason! CUDA 6.0 RC is available. You have to be a registered developer though https://developer.nvidia.com/usercompile cudaminer and compare results. the T kernel for keccak might be interesting to check out. In CUDA 5.5 it gives a rather shocking performance. Christian Using CUDA 6.0 with my GeForce GT 650M (1024MB) on OS X (MacBook) seems to have reduced my performance. With 5.5 I was seeing 70 - 75 Kh/s. With 6.0 I am seeing 45 - 50 Kh/s. With both versions I have been using K4x32 as my configuration. Any suggestions on other configuration options that might work better with 6.0? Thanks!

A good start would be a complete CUDA engine with "4.0+" capabilities. What's does that 4.0+ mean? A device that has uncrippled integer performance (my 760 is crippled because only on 3.5 there are shifters???  ) that without hardware assist already offers 500Kh/s scrypt for 200€ (compared with the 470Kh/s at 170€ for R9-270). That '+' means dedicated transistors for one or more SHA2 units (if I have a damn clue what I'm talking about  ) and whatever other acceleration possible without being too costly. Then, resale value and power usage. For resale value, perhaps video out is necessary. At worst I can still sell it as a used videocard, unlike those Tesla server units. Power usage means unlocked undervolting, power/performance profiles, etc... What you want is some sort of asic build by nvidia... a graphic card without video out lol these things already exist, as Tesla Compute cards.  and the mining market seems to be asking for exactly this, minus the huge price tag. Christian I'd totally fill a PC with Tesla K40's if they weren't $5k each: http://www.amazon.com/NVIDIA-900-22081-2250-000-Active-Computing-Processor/dp/B00GR8FHB6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1392236445&sr=8-1&keywords=tesla+k40Has anyone used CudaMiner with the Tesla K series cards? How do they perform compared to the regular GPU cards?

one pickaxe green over white background, the other white over green background like nvidia symbol, would be better
How's this:
