Really, if your not sure, its best to open such files in sandbox or on a rig that you dont have to worry about ( wallets and all that stuff ).

Will heck yeah ^_^, i tested several miners it has all this... i think its normal... well i'm using it anyway... i trust the author of this miner... thanks man

Uray,

is there a reason why the /submodules/jansson/ folder is empty when I unzip your source file sgminer-master.zip from github?

Now I could compile it doing this ...

Code:

download sgminer ZIP from https://github.com/uraymeiviar/sgminer
download janson ZIP from https://github.com/akheron/jansson

copy AMD ADL_SDK 6.0 files to sgminer/ADL_SDK
copy files from jansson-master/ to /home/user/sgminer-whirl2/submodules/jansson/

cd sgminer-whirl2

autoreconf -i
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native" ./configure --enable-opencl
make

... but I get the same error when I run ./sgminer ...

Code:

[19:45:22] Started sgminer 4.2.2

Press enter to continue:

... as well as with the Linux x64 binary from uray mentioned here:

I guess there is only more thing. Thanks for every hint

You need to download jansson, this one doesn't seem to be directly included in the release then extract to the submodules/jansson directory and run again... it should work perfectly

I already did that in the second and fourth line. That's why it was compiling without error. But if I run uray's Linux x64 binary or my compiled one, I get this "Error -46: Creating Kernel from program. (clCreateKernel)" error. Do you suggest another download source for the janson ZIP?

Didn't have improvement,
can anyone share .bin files for r9 280X and 270?
