[ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]

[verzon]

if i took the -i .. interactive .. system slow down, usage of (cpu / ) gpu high ... now i will test without interactiv giving a "6x2" ... ... ok, only want to get it woriking with showing results in my member stats on coinotron-website ... it´s about 6x2 will get some around <5 khash ... tested with some more khash wont work 100% (getting errors)

edit:
something new .. using mining_proxy .. unexpected error user authentication ...

I also first tried with no -i option and random -l AxB opptions. 6x2 is a good start    Then I found if I use -D the program will doa grid search for me. Just rememer which AxB gives you the highest kh/s and use that AxB in the commandline in the future.

Note that some older mining_proxy doesn't have the -pa option that lets you choose  scrypt. better follow my instruction. the -nm and the --no-longpoll ones can be taken off.

mining_proxy .. i get a warning starting programm " .. proxy jobs. <modules> c # extensions for midstate not available . using default implementation .. "
last try my nvidia or win7 with the nvidia makes me blue ... .. the first time by using these two (mining_proxy / cudaminer) ...

".. stratum proxy version 1.3.0 ..."
cudaminer.bat : " cudaminer -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -O worker:pass -d 0 -l 6x2 -i 0 -C 1 " ...
getwork: user subscribed for LP

oh :-)

on one pool .. submiiting .. accepting ... yeah!

ok, later to try with different pool ... and now waiting, if win will make me blue after a while or not

If you mine with burnside's ltc pool http://ltc.kattare.com/stats.php , you don't need a proxy. It accepts etwork protocol connection.

... i have to solve a driver prob .. but not today ..

[Stoneysilence]

Can anyone help me. I am not using Stratum/Proxy cause I don't know how to set it up with CUDAMiner....

I've tried so many settings, but for the past day/2 days I been getting all these fails + my acceptance rate is like every 2-3 minutes, takes a good while, now I don't know if this is because of a difficulty increase or what, I'll admit, I am nooby.

Anyway just want to know is it me, or the pools.

I am building an AMD 7950 rig this weekend so hope these problems get solved otherwise I have to go to LTC :\ but I want to stick with FTC

I had similar error messages the last few days.  It was my pool.  It's all smooth now.

[Stoneysilence]

i got a "result does not validate on CPU!" after starting cudaminer (after try (start) stratum_proxy) .. (coionotron)

what does that message mean?

remove the -l and -i -C parameters and use -D to find the best -l parameters for you.

Just an FYI, the -D flag just turns on verbose output (Debugging). You'll still get an autotune just by removing the -l parameter, it just won't tell you all the things it's trying until it settles on the one it thinks is best.

ok ... what i want to have is getting it worked no matter how much is khash cause it is only a geforce 210 on a board with 4 core amd cpu.

i do not want to kill the cpu, but trying with coinotron i want to see on website coinotron in member - area some stats of my worker better than "0.0"  .. no matter how much the khash is ..

if i took the -i .. interactive .. system slow down, usage of (cpu / ) gpu high ... now i will test without interactiv giving a "6x2" ... ... ok, only want to get it woriking with showing results in my member stats on coinotron-website ... it´s about 6x2 will get some around <5 khash ... tested with some more khash wont work 100% (getting errors)

I got that user authentication error when I first joined a pool and created a new worker.  Tried it again a few hours later and it worked fine.

Not that it may surprise anyone, but cudaminer mines FTC fine as well

[gamefreakgc]

I've been mining FTC just for the fun of it but was hoping to get as much kh/s as possible. I've been tweaking for a while with -l but I'm not sure if I'm killing my computer in the process. I have Windows 7 with a Nvidia GeForce 650M. I realize this is not a good rig for mining but still want to have some fun.

I've tried the autotune and it usually picks 8x5 or 10x4 and claims a 41 kh/s but won't ever go above 27 kh/s. Runs the GPU at about 80% and temperature around 75 C.

After messing around a bit, if I run at 42x7 it'll stay around 36-37 kh/s. Runs the GPU at about 98% but temperature climbs up to 82 C.

Will running at 42x7 fry my laptop? Does anyone know of a better setting or and I going to end up with a fried computer with nothing to show except for a few bucks worth of FTC?

Heat kills solid-state devices. The more you keep it cool, the longer the component will last. If you weren't mining, how long did you anticipate keeping/using your laptop for? If you wanted to use your laptop for 10 years, then you will likely kill your laptop faster with mining.

On the other hand, if you expected to use your laptop for 2 years, then there is a good chance that mining (without overclocking, and with good ventilation) will not affect your useable lifespan.

Don't expect mining at that rate to provide enough income to allow you to buy a new laptop 2 years from now though!

Please put up donation addresses in your first post, you making it hard to find!

Found your LTC in the end.. sent you 32 LTC to motivate

[cbuchner1]

Whoever just donated me 32 LTC. Thank you very much. I haven't mined that much since I wrote this little program (probably mined about 25 LTC so far).

I've been doing some Litecoin & Feathercoin mining with cudaMiner on my laptop - it's a Lenovo W520 with a Quadro 200M GPU.  I get a max of about 46 khash/sec regardless of the settings. I've mined about 1.5 feathercoins in the last couple of days - a whole $0.69 USD :-).. The machine actually runs pretty cool, but if I add some CPU mining (about 24 khash/sec on the i7 cpu), the overall hash rate is only about 54 khash/sec and it runs the fan at the highest speed. 

I'm thinking about building a real mining machine :-)

That makes sense. My laptop has a hybrid SSD hard drive. Maybe I'll just purchase some coins and see where things go instead of trying to mine since I do want this laptop to last for a while.

Read the post right above your post

It has been there all the time. I just highlighted it with some smileys. You should have invested those 32 LTC in new reading glasses, hehe (just kidding)

Great, it got clogged out from all the other text

[flowice]

My GTX560se,not overclocked,April-30 release,option -C 1 or -C 2 are all crash

[flowice]

yay 185khash with 680 not overclocked.

now how do I get the miner to connect to COINOTRON?

0.02BTC reward!

get mining_proxy.exe from ltcmine.ru
mining_proxy.exe -pa scrypt -o coinotron.com -p 3334
connect cudaminer to localhost port 8332, use normal miner password

HTTP request failed: Failed connect to localhost:8332
json_rpc_call failed

my file:
cudaminer.exe -o localhost:8322 -O user:pass

PROXY:
mining_proxy.exe -pa scrypt -o coinotron.com -p 3334

The port is 8332 not 8322

All those smileys kind of creep me out. You would be better to just highlight your donation address with a larger font and possibly use bolding, something like:

It's experimental. Using anything other than 0 on my system also crashes it (GTX 460).

I've been getting some BSOD when i run the latest version for a while. Not sure if it's cudaminer or something else but just figured i'd post to see if anyone else was getting them?
