Yes I had to really work at getting latest 14.x beta + APP SDK 2.9 going on Ubuntu 13.10. AMD broke openCL so making it work was a nightmare for my 290x cards.
Please try this
Code:
sudo apt-get install ocl-icd-opencl-dev
and see if
Code:
sudo clinfo
returns the card along with sgminer.

LOLWUT? lsmod disagrees... Also the fact that I CAN SEE STUFF RIGHT NOW! Lols, what a disaster.

Ubuntu 13.10 [del]Saucy[/del] Shitty Salamander... This is fuckin' ridiculous. I appreciate you guys lending a hand, but absolutely nothing works and it's self-contradicting... This crap it's showing me can't be true. Since I already wiped the drive a few hours ago, I can afford to do it again and try something else.

I'm reminded of that gag about Internet Explorer; the best browser for installing a new browser! The only good I've got to say about 13.10 is that unetbootin works... lols.

I don't know who is running https://twitter.com/DarkcoinTweets but you've got a bunch of things wrong - Neither @Darkcoin or @DRK are related to Darkcoin in any way. Please correct that.

I opened the @DRKCOIN twitter account very early on but the devs got it blocked/banned quickly in favor of their @darkcoincrypto account. Mine looked a bit too official anyways, although I had the best intentions as far as marketing goes. Had no problem handing it over either of course.

sorry, I'm not up to speed with reddit / twitter 1503. Does this mean that it's basically BS?

I'm sure the person behind it has no ill intentions - just that that for some reason he's linking to other twitter accounts which have nothing to do with darkcoin. He should be linking to the offical twitter if anything.

I hear you, but I don't understand.......
I just mean, is it completely bogus that the armory are accepting darkcoin?

No it's true. You can read it here: http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarkets/comments/1zz4h0/the_armory_new_currency_accepted_darkcoin/

I checked their website and they accept Darkcoins as payment.

actually, he tried windows first...

No, I haven't had a MS OS for almost 12 years now... Cut my teeth on old school gentoo, but this is just stupid... I hated gentoo for always being broken, waiting forever to build stuff only to find out it was borked... But come on! Ubuntu, binary.... This is just silly... Absolutely every single tiny thing that can be broken is broken... I feel like I'm building the whole thing from scratch, absolutely NOTHING works...

Give up and try 12.04 LTS?

im running mint 16 here, based on ubuntu 13.04, had my problems with 13.10 dont know what they did with it, but something is fucked

Bluetooth is borked, audio is borked... Why are they pushing such a terribly broken OS as the latest and greatest?

Downloading Mint 16 XFCE and Xubuntu 13.04...

Working Dir is changing around cuz I'm doing other stuff... Got the darkcoin-qt client to build again, woot, I can look at my stack of DRK! But sgminer is fail still... ./configure for sgminer is clearly not looking this up properly... Or saucy is hiding it in a weird place that the ./configure doesn't know to look in...

Install windows already.. at least then everything just works.

Yeah, I never thought I'd say it, but Microsoft seems to be doing a much better job of pretty much everything computer... What the hell happened?

i followed this:

-- Unzip and copy files from include/* to sgminers/ADL_SDK/ folder

I did that.

libtoolize
autoreconf -ivf

This is where it fails, again...

sudo make

DRK has two big issues that I see:

(1) Because the power draw is only 60% of scrypt, large GPU farms that mine altcoins and dump them for BTC/fiat have an incentive to target DRK. More profit even at price parity due to lower electricity costs. This will keep market supply high perpetually and hence keep the price low.

(2) The legions of unremarkable clone-coins will implement DarkSend once it's open-sourced. See how zero-talent "devs" are copy-pasting Vertcoin's anti-ASIC adaptive N algorithm.

For both (1) and (2) the solution is greater adoption. In the case of (1) it reduces these quasi-commercial dumpers to a smaller proportion of the market. In the case of (2), it allows DRK to achieve escape velocity and get to a point where a competing clone coin can't catch up due to lacking the network effect.

So I see "marketing" as crucial, even in the short-term. In any case, DarkSend should probably be kept closed-source before hitting at least Bter and BTC38 (not that I'm in any position to advise devs). Call it an extended mandatory beta or something. Tongue

I agree, well said.

Personally, I don't think DarkSend should ever be open sourced. All it will result in are a ton of junk coins implementing it, and basically a ton of coins piggybacking on the dev's code here. Yes, if adoption was greater, then perhaps it'd make sense to open source. But to me, adoption means something like being able to be used for actual purchases somewhere.

So if DarkCoin turned into Bitcoin, sure, consider open source. But that sort of adoption would take years. Instead, if it was me, perhaps a verified 3rd party could look at the code for safety types of reasons every so often, rather than just release all of the code for free.

If the code is released, I expect the coin to drop in price ... a lot.

At this point I absolutely agree.  We have no brand awareness and as my favorite saying goes... " never forsake the real for the ideal!"   DarkCoins world needs to be tightly branded and every kink work out.  It would be suicidal to release anything until this coin is burned into peoples mind as the "NAME" in crypto security.

No Cryptoanarchist worth their salt would put their privacy and security in trust of any software that was closed-source.  You just don't get the idea why opensource software is so much more secure than anything closed-source.  
I couldn't agree more. Well put.

I think we should first get DarkSend working properly, release a stable binary version, then we'll find a few researchers/software developers to do an audit of the code. This way we can build a community and establish ourselves so we'll have the network to support the coin after DarkSend is open-sourced.

sgminer 4.1.0

Configuration Options Summary:

  Use git version......: yes
  libcurl(GBT+getwork).: Enabled: -lcurl  
  curses.TUI...........: FOUND: -lncurses
  OpenCL...............: NOT FOUND. GPU mining support DISABLED
configure: error: OpenCL not found

This is beyond stupid... I'm sick of trying to fix all these screw-ups.

Since there is no software that actually works for this card, ASUS 7970 for sale.

Try adding "--enable-opencl" to you configure command.


No, the problem this time is that OpenCL isn't installed, and there is no way for it ever to be installed. There is no package, and none of the AMD stuff functions/installs. Just excuse after excuse... My time is far more valuable than anything I could mine in the time I've already wasted on this busted junk.

Tried it anyway, failed in exactly the same manner because --enable-opencl is on by default. OpenCL isn't there and there's no way to get it. I think it doesn't actually exist.

I can't use the card. It's unsupported for me. I've tried a fresh install of the OS and every step for the drivers, too. It just doesn't work. Someone else can use the card because it just doesn't work for me. All associated software is different for me than it is for everyone else. If I could get the same software everyone else is using, maybe, but for some reason it's all different when I download it. I've wasted way too much time on this trash. Time to move on with my life and do something productive that actually fucking works. Asus 7970 for sale.

Unless someone, somewhere can name the place that OpenCL comes from, I've got no more time for these silly childish games.

install this

http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/heterogeneous-computing/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/downloads/#appsdkdownloads

and this:

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download

Has been installed. ./configure from sgminer denies it even thought I'm lookin' right at it...

P.S. I use your mining pool, but only with my CPU... ;-)
