Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22]

[Red Emerald]

..trying vanitypool at the moment.
On windows (not mine! heh) I get this error:

oclvanityminer64.exe -u https://vanitypool.appspot.com/ -a 1xxx
Get work request failed: Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with given CA certificates

edit: it's "vanitygen-0.22-win.zip", with the executables inside and the .pem cert..

Any hints?
Will check in a second on my linux..

edit2:
What dependencies does oclvanityminer have on linux..? I installed

Code:

libpcre3 libpcre3-dev libssl-dev curl libcurl4-openssl-dev

so far.. still have

Code:

oclengine.c:37:19: error: CL/cl.h

now.. *sigh*

You need AMD-APP-SDK installed.  I have v2.4 installed to /opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx32/ on my BAMT install.  Then from the folder where I have vanitygen (/opt/miners/vanitygen), I did `ln -s /opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx32/include/CL/`

There's probably some flag you could use instead, but this was easy.  Once the link is in place, run make again.

Great, thank you a ton!
Will check it out tomorrow! :-)

Wine doesnt always work. I've gotten it to work some some older games, but I've also had it bug out on me plenty. In short, you can't trust it to work 100% of the time.

And I'm not even going to respond to jl.

well, if something dosnt work then there are enough ppl to help u get it running. there is a wiki with hacks/tweaks/etc so there is enough informations, not even to talk about the devs @ the bugtracker (including me).

This is getting a lil OT, but if I do decide to get swtor working in Wine, i'll PM ya. In the mean time, I'd rather have Oclvanitygen fixed so it can work on my 7970 without the -S flag!

I'm with you here, I'd like to try some more complex addresses myself but I only get ~13Mk with 2 7970s hardly worth the trouble right now.

verbose output tells the problem:

Am I the only one here?
What cert is this anyway, probably the server's one?
Could someone upload his cacert.pem for me?

I'm here! I haven't tried this but maybe you need the cacert root certitificate to validate. You can get it here:

http://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3

You'd have to add it to your certificate authorities. I'm jsut taking a poke in the dark and I've had too much wine. Why don't they get a startssl.com cert (free!!) as that would be recognized by everyone.

Edit: oh , looks like it's expired. That's a whole diff problem. Maybe you can turn off cert authentication. Otherwise you'll have to wait for them to renew it.

f*k, can't even type straight.

Thank you for your hard efforts! ;-)

Yes, seems like I can't do much here. I found no switch to disable certificate checking..

Fuck!

You've got a video card that's $14.99 after rebate?

All except for the very last sentence where it tells you to underclock the RAM. IIRC, address mining likes its RAM speeds.

That's what I've observed.  My GPU setup works best (for vanity addresses) with default voltage and clock speeds as opposed to overclocked processor, underclocked RAM and undervoltage for BTC mining.

Vanity address mining performance seemed to track linearly with RAM speed.

this is pretty obvious, have you installed the SDK?

Interesting. I didn't know that and sometimes share with mining. I never thought about changing the settings between each use.

[deepceleron]

The solution above was the best post I had for removing newer drivers' OpenCL files and installing a driver with a working OpenCL (installing a seperate SDK is not required unless you are doing other unrelated things like building libraries from source). Many posts in this thread, even in the last few pages, indicate the same answer regarding newer drivers not working. As above posters noted, disregard the last line about underclocking RAM - for vanitygen, increasing GPU clock and RAM clock to their maximum independently will both boost address creation rate.

This topic is getting interesting: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=133122.0

It seems possible that it's related to a different vanity address generator.

this 1Piachu seems to have been solved many times already, are there multiple Piachus requested?  *scratch*

Don't suppose anyone wants 1PiachuZqeLaJcNDwcro1BH5PFBZVx4Gf7?

haha

[bitpop]

what do you mean many times already?

My laptop with NVIDIA GeForce 640M 2GB (devstring 1:0) gets 4 MKeys/s using oclvanityminer
And the i7 2.2 GHz gets 270 KKeys/s. They can run simultaneously, which is nice.
Surprised people mine for vanity addresses at these prices though. 0.000027 BTC/MkeyHr? Really?

oclvanityminer64 works for the graphics card, but the integrated graphics only works with oclvanityminer. Wonder why?
