that's mostly the reason I don't use it anymore (and have trouble with github, since I have to change it back before putting my stuff on github)

I've been reading some of your experiences with github and it doesn't sound like to much fun.

Yeah, I secretly lolled when I saw your endless flow of github fixing commits, djm

hmm doesn't seem really secret anymore  
I am afraid it won't be the last time... (my current dev. area hasn't much to do with the one of github... the problem is to pass a simple change to github without uploading all my crap... can be tricky... especially when the files don't have necessarily the same name... for some unknown reason whirlcoin.cu is called whirlpool.cu,
the method wh_regenhash is called test_regenhash (back to the time when whirlcoin/whirlpool.cu was called test.cu.... )

Could you wack it and start over?

nope, as there are works in progress... (actually I already did it once...)
if m7 ever comes out (far from being ready) it will be github holocaust

Using your Whirlcoin I picked up 1,000 kh/s just by updating my driver to 340.43

Not sure if anyone's jumping on Doomcoin (luffa-512) but I just butchered a ccminer fork, ripping 10 out of the 11 algo's for x11, getting 53 MH/s for a 750 Ti and 111 MH/s for 780 Ti. I wonder if I will get blocks as I know nothing about programming and am actually proud it compiled.

[discodancer]

I am wondering why (or rather is there already?) there is no gpuminer for Cryptonite:

Most of the M7 algo seem to be already part of ccminer. Noob programmer here so not attempting to change the github versions

they wrote it would be wallet mining only...

yeah sure...   This isn't x7 (need to rewrite 6 or 7 algo...   I know I did it... and I am not even sure there are for the correct block length)
not mentioning the difference in blockheader and the 512x512 bit multiplications (both for cpu validation... trying to get mpir working... and on gpu...)

edit: actually might be easier with sgminer, at least I can get gmp working there...

Man, what a poor name for a coin.  Crytonite when there is already the algo CryptoNight.

Yea, that's not going to be confusing when Cryptonite doesn't use CryptoNight but uses M7.

What are people thinking?!?!?!?

the funny thing is that I always type cryptonite instead of cryptonight

Yea, then you better not do any programming on this then.

Major improvement on the Whirl Coin.

At about 21,065 kh/s and 536/537 for 99.81% accepted and the "Yay" are moving a lot faster now over the D6b version.

[cayars]

yes djm34 did a great job on it.

I got tripped up with his github and had both whirlcoin and whirlpool cu files and things were slightly goofed.  Wonder how it even compiled but it did.
For a while tsiv and djm34 were making lots of little releases and it was hard to keep up with 6+ hour compile times on Cuda 5.5. I need to make slight changes to both to fit in nvMiner and it was a tough time.

Version "C" should give everyone all the current algos running at top speed if using the latest windows nVidia drivers and the nvMiner65.exe version.

Speaking of Cuda 5.5.  No more from me unless someone finds something drastically wrong with the 6.5 version.

It's just not worth 10x time it takes to compile/link.

Carlo

PS happy mining

So should expect it soonish, eh?

assuming everyone can run with it and the latest public beta drivers... (need some confirmations though).
If yes I will do the same (will make half of github problems disappear)

Mine doesn't work either.

If only I would know what I'm doing, but I'm afraid i'm just cutting parts out left and right hoping to get lucky
