[QUESTION]Two rigs hashing as one

[jaywaka2713]

Is it possible to have two rigs hashing as one? I ask more for the purpose of vanity address generation. Say I have two seperate rigs that have 6 7950s. Is it at all possible to run these two rigs as one entity together under one instance of the vanitygen software? Also for theoretical purpose, would I be able to utilize both rigs under one instance of any miner software (e.g. cgminer)? If so, how could one go about this?

I'm sure there are solutions I've seen here for multi gpu hyperthreading for single task, can't seem to find them right now.

FPGA and ASIC hardware for vanity address crunching is on the way. I am interested and looking forward to trying MyOwnAddress - great work.

I think vanitygen searches randomly so just run it on both at the same time.  No need to link them.

I know its based off raw probability but its just for my personal liking to have them under the same process. I wonder if its possible to host the vanitygen software on a home server using a RaspberryPi and just have the two rigs connect to a proxy and send data together into the software...

I'd be interested to know if you get it working.

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you! I can host this on an RPi or my MK802 IIIS, and connect everything together. Do you have a DigitalCoin wallet? I want to send you a tip.

Thanks! I've never gotten a tip before. DU7rkdzTDRAeNdXSkwbW4Ctph68ZpktAru

I've never understood why someone hasn't made an fpga capable vanity generator. Seems like any mid sized miner could clear an entire list using a few gigahashes in a quick time.

hm. Maybe I should write this...

Don't waste your time. On a computer that gets 155 Mh/s in cgminer, with vanitygen I only get 3.03 Mh/s. It's a different generation scheme.
