I'm getting 0/khashs on the windows binaries you compiled. doesn't matter if it's CPU, CUDA, or screensavers.

If you don't see a line that says "Target = " with something other than all ffs, then the miner couldn't connect to the RPC server and couldn't download work.  Check that your arguments are correct, particularly the login info.

Thanks, that got the wheels turning upstairs.  I had to register a worker first on bitcoin.cz before it would allow me to get work units. I thought that simply signing up for an account was enough. Now I am getting work and hashing roughly 45000 khash/s on my GTX 260.

So, any way I can throttle the CUDA miner to make my system useable?  If I could have a functional system at 90% performance, I could keep it running all day rather than just at night.  I tried setting the "aggression" lower, but to no effect.

Aggression would be the main parameter that affects desktop responsiveness.  Set it to 1 and slowly increase it until you find a balance you like.


I'm getting the message: 
The procedure entry point cuMemFree_v2 could not be located in the dynamic link library nvcuda.dll

I'm running on a windows 7 professional laptop (HP) which has an NVIDIA GeForce GT 230M in it. 

I downloaded the latest driver from NVIDIA  258.96 and double checked that I didn't need to have a driver update from NVIDIA's website. 

258.96 is an old driver.  You need a driver that supports at least CUDA 3.2 if you use the supplied binaries.  Alternately, you can compile the source with whatever CUDA toolkit you have available.


Hello,

I'm having problems with rpcminer-opencl.exe. I'm still getting 0 khash/s even if it connects correctly to the local server.


Code:
>rpcminer-opencl.exe -gpu=0 -url=http://127.0.0.1:8332 -user=XXX -password=XXX

rpcminer-cpu.exe is working flawless.

My system:

2x ATI HD 6950 CrossfireX
Catalyst 11.2
ATI Steam 2.3

As I said before, if you don't see a line that says "Build program rval=0" the kernel didn't get built successfully and you're not going to be doing any hashing.  You can try this kernel.  If that doesn't work you'll have to edit the kernel and find out what's causing it not to build.

I'm getting 0/khashs on the windows binaries you compiled. doesn't matter if it's CPU, CUDA, or screensavers.

I can't seem to get the CUDA miner to work.  It only generates 0/khashs. My command line is as follows

D:\RPCMiner\rpcminer-cuda.exe -gpu -url=http://mining.bitcoin.cz:8332 -user=***** -password=*****

What am I doing wrong?
