Hi,
I was trying for a long time to make work this GPU miner on my laptop (Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M) without success, and today it works
!
# ./xpmclient -b
madPrimeMiner-v1.1
ClientName = 'modulix' ClientID = 1962103082 InstanceID = 2241023174

found platform[0] name = 'NVIDIA CUDA'

Unfortunately, i needed to hack the xpmclient.cpp file to remove the test after the line 1251 about incompatible configuration :
config_t config = miner->getConfig();
/*
if (config.TARGET != clKernelTarget ||
config.PCOUNT != clKernelPCount ||
config.STRIPES != clKernelStripes ||
config.WIDTH != clKernelWidth ||
config.WINDOWSIZE_ != clKernelWindowSize) {
printf("Existing OpenCL kernel (kernel.bin) incompatible with configuration\n");
printf("Please remove kernel.bin file and restart miner\n");
exit(1);
}
*/
I don't know exactly what is bad in this test, but after i tried to put in config.txt file same values as found in gpu/config.cl without success, i tried to remove the test and... now, it's ok ;-)
The values i have in my config.txt :
server = "xpmforall.org";
port = "6666";
address="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
name="modulix";
cpuload="1";
platform="nvidia";
target="10";
weaveDepth="40960";
sieveSize="420";
width="20";
windowSize="4096";
devices=["1", "0", "0", "0"];
I hope that this post could enhance this great project !
