[XPM] Working on a GPU miner for Primecoin, new thread :)

[eule]

Tried many different sievesizes and percentages, keeps crashing (Win7 x64 aswell) after a varying amoung of time (5 seconds - 2 minutes). Didn't donate so it's probably Karma.

Does: "C2 21.......34 found -> 06.686a5b found!" mean a valid block has been found? I have many of these but nothing appearing in my wallet.

Did you change the primecoin_address to your own prime coin address?


Im using windows 64 and same issue with busminer...

Yep, the address is mine

I need help with the compilation this is my output when I run the last make instruction:

Code:

[  6%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/reaper.dir/AppOpenCL.cpp.o
/home/user/XPM/reaperprime/AppOpenCL.cpp: In member function ‘void OpenCL::WriteBufferPattern(uint, std::string, size_t, void*, size_t)’:

  cl_int status = clEnqueueFillBuffer(GPUstate.commandQueue, GPUstate.buffers[buffername], pattern, pattern_length, 0, data_length, 0, NULL, NULL);
                                                                                                                                                 ^

Thanks

I have "solve" the error just comenting the 285 line from AppOpenCL.cpp...
Now I have exactly the same output as paulthetafy:

Awseome thanks for your help.  Still not building though...


Linking CXX executable reaper
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblkmaker-0.1
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblkmaker_jansson-0.1

paulthetafy, didn't you have the same problem previously about clEnqueueFillBuffer as me?
Thanks,

Same issue here Win7 X64

Thanks,

you need to download libblkmaker (link in build.txt) and build it.  make sure you do autogen, configure, make clean, make

So has anyone actually mined a block and seen it in their wallet yet?

06.686a5b is the difficulty of what has been found. In this case, you found a block of difficulty 06.686a5b in hex or ~6.32 in decimal. The network diff is 9.85 or so, however.

Can anyone share the settings for 4x 7950 ? Please it is very necessary

i have posted all u need to get going

[tbly13]

Lol, he submits a miner that does not even work.    Thinking about how bad it will be if someone does manage to get it to work haha

To be completely sure if your miner works, you can use testnet for testing   and see if you get a blocks.

This is the very same error I get on my system. Tried setting every possible config setting that could possibly be causing wackiness like this, but it still continues to not work
I'm running 2x Radeon 6850's, with the Catalyst 12.8 drivers on Win7 x64, if it matters.

I paid for this miner but everything I do I can't get it working.

No, you didn't. You made a donation. Remember that.

True, typed that out wrongly. My bad.

However, some guide to get it working would be great.

How can i mine on testnet with reaper?

[tbly13]

I smell SCAMZOR   BTCBTCBTCBTC

[paulthetafy]

So  can compile under linux.  If I run with use_gpu_fermat_test true then I get 0 fermats/s.
Either way, the biggest issue is that if I use anything other than the example address for primecoin_address in primecoin.conf then reaper crashes with an Invalid Address error.  Any ideas?

[DeaDTerra]

I get the error that the program can't start because it is missing zlib1.dll
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
I am on windows 7 64 bits with the latest drivers for my graphics cards.
