Hi,

I used sph miner just after marucoin kernel was added and it worked out-of-the-box.
I have APU and 4 280X rig, you dont have to disable APU, it works great for displaying desktop ;-)
You can use only those devices you want from miner command line.

f.e.: -d 1-4 --remove-disabled

I am getting Failed to init GPU thread 0. I have an Nvidia 780Ti in my top slot and I have a Radeon 5850 in the bottom one. I am trying to run this on the 5850. I have ran X11 no problem on it but this doesn't work.

Thanks,
Griff

this is what I am getting

it seems that the kernel marucoin, isn't present in the kernel folder

I fixed my problems if anyone is having similar issues with low hashrates on 7950s when mining X11 coins. I couldn't get any of my 7950s above ~650kh/s running Xubuntu 12.10.

I had to uninstall every trace of Catalyst drivers and then install the latest Catalyst Drivers from AMD (14.4 at time of this post). I was running much older 12.9 Catalyst. I then had to compile sph-sgminer from source which is no small feat tracking down all the damn dependencies.

At any rate, that fixed it. I'm now getting 1.6Mh/s+ from each 7950 without hardly any tweaking.

Hello I am having a problem running sgminer with the -k , I have downloaded the version from the first page of the thread.

I am trying to mine from my laptop with a Intel HD Graphics 4000, I know I wont get much but want to get used to mining. I have set up two workers in a pool one for CPU and one for GPU, the CPU mining is working ok.

When I run sgminer from .bat or from command line with the '-k darkcoin' included it wont start mining I get a build error about blake.cl .
If I run sgminer without the '-k darkcoin' it starts to mine but I get a lot of HW errors, like 500 easy in one minute. I read some where to make sure to use the -k option to cut down / stop HW errors, but alas I can not get it to work with that option.

I have manually installed the latest Intel graphics drivers, I notice in control panel in the list of programs to un install there is OpenCL 1.1, I have tried to find a download for 1.2 but the Intel link doesnt work for me, could this be my problem?

Also I have tried running the -k option with different coin names but get the same problem.

Thanks for any help

You need to post your config settings.

Thanks for the reply. I am not using a config file, just the options from command line or in a .bat file.

This is the command I use;
sgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://mining.darkcointalk.org:3333 -u myusername -p mypassword

When I run this sgminer starts with lots of HW errors. If I try the same but with -k darkcoin sgminer has a build error. I have also tried with the recommended Intel HD 4000 settings from the litecoin mining comparison chart, '-I 13 -g 1 -w 64 --thread-concurrency 6144' but sgminer wont run unless I drop the thread concurrency to 4000, and again lots of HW errors without the -k option and a build error with the -k option.
Could it be a driver issue? I dont understand why it builds without the -k but not with it ?

Try it without the thread-concurrency.
Also try engine 1100, mem 1500

Nope that didn't work either. I think I am down to trying to update the drivers now I guess.

how to disable it? my pc is amd althon II

does it have integrated GPU? If yes in system-->device manager---> display adapters and disable the integrated

This is only a work around as i suggested in Boost X13 forum. Maru Kernel has performance issues as well with mobo that has integrated GPU's.

What i noticed trying to find this work around was that Maru Kernel only created on TC bin file and tried to use that for onboard GPU as well. It seems that it fails to realize that there is on board GPU and does not do a separate TC calculation for it.

I think this will also affect rigs where they users have different R9 cards like 270, 280, 290 etc.

I have tested this on different rigs and Maru Kernel performance on Rigs with on board GPU (Even with it being disabled) is lower that the ones without.

If you need my help in anyway, Give me a shout.

IMPORTANT

some people at x13 boost mining with -marucoin get this Error -11: Building Program (clBuildProgram)

I found this solution but cannot understand what exactly it means:
" Error -11: Building Program (clBuildProgram) - execute miner from the directory where "kernel" directory is present"

drivers 13.12, 14.4

How can we solve this error?

On some rigs program works, on others it seems impossible

Found a quick workaround.

On systems with integrated GPU (mainly AMD) one has to DISABLE integrated graphics in order for the -marucoin kernel to work.

Is this a windows only problem can we fix this?

Having some issues with Marucoin. Pulled from master on the github repo.

Code:

Edit:
Sorry, I'm an idiot. Read through the code. It relies on having fugue.cl in the $PATH. I simply did a 'make install' and am good now.

Windowz no option for me sing got no hard disks to spare ...

Thanks in advance !

I'm having issues with my 7950 rigs. No matter what I try, none of my 7950 cards (all 16 of them) will run above ~600Kh/s. Here is my current command line:

Code:

./sgminer -k darkcoin -I 18 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 24000 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1400 -o stratum+tcp://east01.us.trademybit.com:4440 -u x -p x --api-listen

I'm seeing people getting ~1.5Mh/s+ with the above settings but I can't seem to replicate it. The only thing I haven't tried upgrading the drivers. I'm on Catalyst 12.9 running Xubuntu 12.10.

Any ideas? I think I'm basically down to upgrading the drivers but I wanted to get some input before I go down that long road with Linux and mining cards...

Try it without the thread-concurrency.
Also try engine 1100, mem 1500

Can someone give my conf for r9 290 Tri-x for Win8 for more than 2,5Mh/s . Thank you.

you will have to use the modified miner x11mod from other thread - it will give you 3.65mhs

i have it running stable in win8, but crashes on my other rig win7

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annx11x13-x11-darkcoinx13-marucoin-miner-based-on-sph-sgminer-623409

i am using elun's build on page 13

Wow Thank you now It's 3,7Mh/s . Give me your Cryptsy Trade Key
