Right, you need the PCRE lib installed. Download from http://pcre.org/

Code:

./configure; make; make install

Safe mode does the same ting (never finds anything)
Running oclvanitygen -d0 1 finds something instantly
Running oclvanitygen -d0 -vkr -w128 "^1B" returns
...
followed by more GPU idles. Not sure if that CPU matcher is right. Maybe that -r isn't working for me?  

Ah!  Perhaps it's repeating the same address indefinitely, or maybe for all results of a particular batch.  Try:

-d0 -vkr -w128 "^1"

Interesting. "^1" comes back with a whole slew of adresses instantly, but as soon as I add a B, or anything else after that 1, it just sits there :/

edit Makefile and change the line
CFLAGS to be like
CFLAGS=-ggdb -O3 -Wall -I/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx64/include/
^ or where ever your included path is for opencl
see 2.3 or if using nvidia then somewhere else
to find where try
locate /cl.h

If RaTTuS' solution doesn't work (which was the case for me), put that in a sh file, make it executable and run it with arguments (1:the folder containing the CL directory, 2: the folder containing libOpenCL.so):

Code:

#!/bin/sh
if [ $# -lt 2 ]
then
	echo 'arg1 = sdk/include'
	echo 'arg2 = sdk/lib/x86(_64?)'
	exit
fi

Are you sure libOpenCL.so is in the second directory you provided?

Did you get vanitygen working at least? For your usage that'll work just fine until you can sort oclvanitygen out.

Back to my original post..

I haven't been successful in implementing either vanitygen or oclvanitygen on my linux server. 2 Bitcoin reward for anyone who can.

PM me for login details.

this is the linker failing you need

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx64/lib/x86_64/:/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.4-lnx64/lib/x86_64/:
in either your
.bashrc file [relog the terminal afterwards]
or
to test
on a command line
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx64/lib/x86_64/:/opt/ati-stream-sdk-v2.4-lnx64/lib/x86_64/:
then try the make

As far as I could see your vanitygen should indeed have linked fine - the linking error you posted was for oclvanitygen alone and the library it didn't find is also used by oclvanitygen alone.

Sorry for asking again, but didn't you get a "vanitygen" executable? Do you, if you do:

Code:

make clean
make vanitygen

?

You should be able to do "./vanitygen -i 1bounty" after that ...

Now solved. Sorry I can't help out with the Linux OpenCL specifics, but others seem to be on that

Bounty:

8 Bitcoins and some free rolls on Birtcoinduit to the first person to give basic documentation, and who is able to get oclvanity gen compiled and running on the rig.

If you're up for the challenge, you can PM me, and I'll give you the credentials. I'm not too concerned about security, as the worst that can happen is that someone messes with the miner scripts. You'd have access to 1.1 GH/s, but there's no private keys anywhere on the thing. It's just a persistent install.

Anyways, if someone is interested, I have a lot of other projects underway right now, but I really do think it's worth the cost to get this piece working, as I am NOT a linux guy at the core, and dependencies / syntax are not where I should be putting my headspace right now. Instead, let me pay back someone, or multiple people on this forum for their help and assistance.

Jonathan

Thanks and +1
Will check them out when I have some free time .... [yeah right !]

I have found a bitcoin address, can I use it just for "receive" coins even if I didn't added it on my wallet/client? ( I'll add it later ... )

test with like .001 bitcoins before you do anything major. make sure you are able to reclaim the coins you put in

Yes but keep the priv key somewhere
