How do I setup reaper to run on my computer? I'm running an ATI HD4650.
I've tried a couple different setups for the config file but it either does nothing for half an hour (even though it says it should only take two minutes to setup) or it closes after two seconds.

(I'm trying to mine LiteCoin and/or BTC w/GPU not CPU with reaper.)

my current config file: (which just sits there for a long time doing nothing...)
Code:
    cpu_mining_threads 4
    threads_per_gpu 2
    aggression 10
    worksize 128
    kernel reaper.cl
    save_binaries yes
    enable_graceful_shutdown no
    long_polling yes
    host http://mine.pool-x.eu
    port 8337
    user *** (my real username and password are in the config file)
    pass ***
    mine litecoin

The display basically is stuck showing this:
Code:
I'm now mining bitcoin!
Share thread started
List of platforms:
0     AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
Using platform number 0
Using all devices
0     ATI RV730
Program built from saved binary.
1     Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU  M460 @ 2.53 GHz
Compiling kernel... this could take up to two minutes


Am I just completely missing something?
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

in a file called litecoin.config should be something similar to this info

host ****
port ****
user ***
pass ****


protocol litecoin

worksize 256
aggression 15
threads_per_gpu 1
sharethreads 18
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 6144


Then in the file called reaper.config should be this

kernel reaper.cl
save_binaries yes
enable_graceful_shutdown no
long_polling yes


mine litecoin

cpu_mining_threads 0

device 1

from the looks of everything your sticking all the info in 1 file which wont work also this configuration will mine on just the GPU and not the CPU
change the **** info to your info

theres not really a video out there but if your really not sure what to do use gui miner scrypt alfa

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=150331.0

its easier to user just create a new miner with reaper in "file"
if the pool your trying to use needs a stratum proxy its in there to
