Using GUIMiner v2012-12-03 with slushpool's mining pool.  I have three workers setup: CPU, GPU1 and GPU2.  CPU connects and accepts blocks to work on, but neither GPU worker will.  In the console, I see errors like:

2014-03-09 20:06:49: Listener for "GPU2": error: [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
2014-03-09 20:06:50: Listener for "GPU2": Traceback (api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 09/03/2014 20:06:50, IO errors - 2, tolerance 2
<snip>
2014-03-09 20:13:15: Listener for "GPU2": api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 09/03/2014 20:13:15, Setting new difficulty: 3
2014-03-09 20:13:18: Listener for "GPU1": api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 09/03/2014 20:13:18, Verification failed, check hardware! (0:0:Turks, 381716bd)

So, is this an issue with the pool's servers?  or a driver problem on my GPU?

Cheers,

This is 1 of 3 things causing a kernel error:

1. Defective hardware - let's assume the hardware is good
2. Driver problem - what driver and sdk are you using
3.  May need to do the following:

Using GUIminer, locate poclbm.cl and simply replace

#ifdef BFI_INT
   #define Ch(x, y, z) amd_bytealign(x, y, z)
#else
   #define Ch(x, y, z) bitselect(z, y, x)
#endif


with

#define Ch(x, y, z) bitselect(z, y, x)

Thank you for your reply.  This has been driving me nuts!

The hardware works (its powering the displays on this computer right now, and I game with the same box regularly.)

Driver package is 13.251-131206a-166389C-ATI
Catalyst Version is 13.12
2D Driver Version is 8.01.01.1360
Direct3D Version is 9.14.10.01001
OpenGL Version is 6.14.10.12618

Here is my full poclbm.ini file... I did not find poclbm.cl, am hoping they're the same?

Code:

I gave the wrong file name for guiminer those lines of code that need replaced are in this file:

phatk.cl

NOT poclbm.cl

Wait are you trying to mine at slush's pool or simplecoin?  the log shows both?  The default addy in guiminer for slush's pool is incorrect and I believe simplecoin is shut down?

You should probably not be mining bitcoin with video cards anyways as it loses money...find an alt coin you want to mine and make sure the pool is setup correctly in guiminer.
