I've tried 2 approaches to the opencl kernel. First I ported reaper's kernel which should have been the least work but it kept returning garbage responses. Secondly I ported the entire scrypt c code to opencl code and had the same thing happen. Something I'm doing wrong in passing parameters to it or something but I've audited them hundreds of times and can't see wtf I'm doing wrong. Code is NOT public yet while it's a mess and in flux and the bounty is being collected.

I've had more than a "bit" of a crack at doing this since the bounty was started and I've gotta say it's far from trivial. I grossly underestimated how much effort it would take and am currently stumped by various failures with my attempts so far.

What are you struggling with specifically?

I'd be willing to throw some coin at the project. I think if there was an address lots of people would send some change that way (rather than pledging 5-10 coins at a time).

Give me a address and I will pledge BTC5 too. Would mean we are at BTC80 now.

I'll pitch in 5. Do we have wallet for the bounty yet?

So now the total is BTC75. Graet we need that bounty wallet, maybe I can scrap up a few and donate a little too.

Hmm Graet, can you put an update in the first post saying where the total is?
Looks like it's 65 BTC at the moment and died ?

Guys,

 I think we must fork CGMiner to add Scrypt to it.

 Please, don't botther ckolivas about this... He does not want to do it. Let's fork cgminer!

 We can call it SGMiner!

 The features I would like to see within "SGMiner" are:

 1- Add Scrypt to it (of course);
 2- When mining Scrypt coins using CPU, use the Pooler's code from his cpuminer;
 3- When mining Scrypt coins using GPU, use the Reaper's code;
 4- Ability to mine for both Bitcoin and Litecoin simultanously, I mean, I would like to choose the proper algorithm (SHA256 or Scrypt) for each pool;

 NOTE: For the CPU mining code, when using new CPUs from AMD (APU) with a Radeon integrated within the CPU, make sure that the code is actually using the integrated video (new CPU flags) hardware too.

 I can invest arount 5~10 Bitcoins (~2500 Litecoins) in a couple weekes.

Cheers!
Thiago
well cgminer is open source, ltc has been going since november = anyone with the skills could have done it by now...but havent
go ahead and make a reaper/minerd miner Smiley
no-one is saying competition is bad Smiley


Thanks to the guys that have pledged so far Smiley


Well, my idea is to invest on it... Since I am not a developer... Those first 3 features "should be/must be/can be" part of this whole "CGMiner for Litecoin" idea...    Wink

Don't you think?!

Cheers!
Thiago

the thing is why use reapers code since ( IMO ) doing it in cgminer will outperform reapers code, Reapers code does have it's problems with glitches and that is why i am agree with just building a new kernal for CGminer

And I vote for the LGminer ( LitecoinGpuMiner Hence LGminer ) or ACminer ( AltCoinMiner Hence ACminer )

I'm guessing no one is mining on your LTC pool?

There is also donated some LTC to it, that can be find on the main page on http://wallet.liteco.in/

I dont understand. I also dont see anything there re donating to cgminer supporting scrypt.


what is there to not understand?, its a fund that have been made, to that person that makes a better GPU with scrypt then reaper, so if it CGminer, then the LTC will go to that?

Anyone know the timeline on this development?

1 week? 2 weeks?

Just curious...thanks!

 Grin Grin Grin

well, when we get to 100btc, then conman will have to answer that, did you donate?

The question was in reference to once we get 100 btc and he starts...
once I told him there were already 60btc pledged he started looking at the code.


@Graet, could you make a wallet for the bounty?

I will soon - away on holidays. later today I will get one up Smiley
