Yaamp do not mine darkcoin(dash) atm! So I don't know it will work or not.
This bat (with your btc adress) works 100%:
ccminer.exe -a quark -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:4033 -u 1CTiNJyoUmbdMRACtteRWXhGqtSETYd6Vd -p d=0.002
I have checked.  Smiley
I have a question: why on quark algo (r47) some times i=22.6 (22.5 too) good working, but some times i have "out of memory" at the start? i=22.4 always works.

It yould be because ccminer fails to allocate a continious block of memory.

Try to increase the virtual memory to 16GIG.

On linux -i 23 or more is possible

which cards are you using? ...

with quark - stock clocks - giagbyte 750ti oc lp - the max intensity that we can get is 23.7 ...

./ccminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3345/ -O 1CTiNJyoUmbdMRACtteRWXhGqtSETYd6Vd:x -a quark -r 3 -R 10 -i 23.7 ...

thats the full commandline we use for standalone direct mining ...

quark donation stratum proxy about to kick off mate ...

exactly our thinking ...
which is why we are setting up donation proxies for the devs that are here with us ...
at the moment - x11 is setup temporarily for sp on : donate.granitecoinx.com:7999 ... any username - any password ...

Thanks for the donation.

Why x11? I guess you need it optimized. Smiley After wolf leaked his binaries I haven't done much in x11.
Try quark.

here is the bat script:

ccminer.exe  -a quark  -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:4033  -u XdgfWywdxABwMdrGUd2xseb6CYy1UKi9jX  -p d=0.002

paid to my darkcoin/dash adress.

all good sp ...

this was originally just how the donation was given ... we did this the last few times if you recall - and once directly to your btc account for the private miners ...

but this was more a test to see if people were interested in doing it this ... and so - as in the comment given earlier - will have various algos we will have to donate to using various ports ...

we will set this up over the next few days and update here ... or setup a new thread for it ...

btc address is used and under x11 initially to get the ball rolling and get things started - and yes its us that prefer to have x11 optimized to the max - might not be the rest of the community Smiley ...

we use our own servers to mine for ourselves AND donate mining to devs - so why not open it to the public? ... as long as its functional and it allows even the smallest miner to add to the hashrate ...

the choice of algos and developer will be on the server soon ... so the donor can decide WHO to donate to and WHAT algo to mine with ... and it will all go to the same address specified by each dev ...

so devs - if you would like to send me your btc addresses - we will set up the systems ... though most of the btc addresses are in the sig anyway ...

thats the only reason your btc address has been placed to mine donations to - and to keep it universal ...

there is NO hashrate that gets lost or stolen - as it goes through the proxy and ONLY the proxy ... which also means we can failover to nicehash / westhash with the same algo so that almost NONE of the hashrate is wasted and STILL deposited into the donation address ... just in case yaamp falls over for any reason ...

we are not asking anything for this - as we are paying for the servers anyway - AND this type of donation system has been setup via bitcoin / blackcoin / granitecoin for our own donation strategy when our granitecoin website goes up ...

so can i safely assume that you are ok with what we are doing here? ...

btw - we will keep this test system mining and donating for you for a little while - until we need it back for testing your new updates ... Wink ...

and if anyone wants to join the and increase the hashrate - feel free to donate too ...

Scryptr I can't remember if you are on linux but:

if you use the "run" installer (from the download page: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-65) and not the rpm/deb, you are given the option not to install the driver associated with that version of the toolkit, so you can keep your more recent driver. (at least in Ubuntu, though I assume other distros are equivalent.)

I'm running on linux ubuntu 14.04 and successfully installed cuda 6.5. I tried installing my own 346.59 nvidia drivers, but cuda forces me to use their built-in 340 drivers.  If I try moving to 346 drivers, the cuda installer cannot find a current nvidia driver.

LINUX RIG--

This was a linux rig.  I installed the xorg/edgers ppa and used apt-get to install the drivers.  Then I used dpkg to install the toolkit, and lost the drivers.  I just used apt-get to re-install nvidia-349, and lost the toolkit.  Smiley  The rig needs to be reloaded...oh, well.  I am hoping toolkit v7.0 will allow the latest drivers.

EDIT:  According to the manual, "Getting started with CUDA", you do not need to purge drivers when using "dpkg" with the Cuda 6.5 *.deb file.  I went to the downloaded toolkit *.deb file and re-installed with little fuss.  My current driver is 343.19, and I am mining again.

--scryptr

I tried installing from the .deb file as well, but the install errors out with "repository not found" .... or something like it.  I had to use the .run files and combine instructions from 6 or 7 different online guides to finally get cuda to install.

My steps were xorg/edgers ppa nvidia drivers installed, use the .run file from the CUDA developer website and choose no on installing drivers.  Updating drivers goes without a hitch (I'm on 346.47 currently).  But whatever got it going for you guys is all that matters Wink

Nice hashrate on quark & skein btw! Nice work sp_! My hashrate on quark: 2x750ti=3x280x!!! 100W=450W?!  Grin
Cпacибo! I will mine for you! I have 2x750ti atm, but there is a slot for another one (in the daughter comp's).  Wink

we have a proposal ...

we have setup a donation system FOR sp which we are currently testing and mining via yaamp as i write this ...

this has NOT been discussed with sp - nor authorized by sp ... in fact - he knows nothing about it as yet - as we have just finished the setup a few minutes ago ...

currently the test is specifically on x11 - but other algos will follow to sp's btc address ... this can be seen via yaamp currently which will show that it has just started a few minutes ago ...

http://yaamp.com/?address=1CTiNJyoUmbdMRACtteRWXhGqtSETYd6Vd ...

it is the test system we have running with 2 x gigabyte 750ti oc lp cards running fedora 19 x64 and sp's latest ccminer v47 ( with intensity -i 20.6 as its the highest these cards will do ) ...

as this is the usual way we donate - we thought possibly we might not be the only ones that would want to do it this way ...

if you are interested in donating via mining and it is agreeable that a mining system for donation for sp be setup - we shall supply the details of the server and setup of the mining system and you too can join in ...

also - if this is a 'good' way of donating - and everyone can pitch in a small amount of hashpower ( no matter how small ) we will keep this system running for donations AND setup various other ones in different algorithms ... all of which can be publicly checked and seen on yaamp via sp's btc address ...

this is obviously based on a trust system - as donations are the lifeblood of the development process ...

please let us know your thoughts ...

#crysx

Hey mate! This is my way! LOL
OK! I'm all for this proposal!
Another thing: SP_ needs to prepare some bat-files (SP_x11.bat, SP_quark.bat, etc) and put them in each his releases.
For example SP_x11.bat:
ccminer.exe  -a x11  -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:3533  -u 1CTiNJyoUmbdMRACtteRWXhGqtSETYd6Vd  -p d=0.002

I think that's a very good method, we can behave the same way with the other developers (Wolf0, Tpruvot...).

exactly our thinking ...

which is why we are setting up donation proxies for the devs that are here with us ...

at the moment - x11 is setup temporarily for sp on : donate.granitecoinx.com:7999 ... any username - any password ...

ALL of the hashpower will go to yaamp and sp's btc address ... it will be accumulated - so the yaamp graphs will show the total hasrate and payouts to his address ...

if yaamp fails - then we can have it failover to nicehash / westhash ... so possibly we will omit any algos that are not on both sites ... or not ... Smiley ...

if this works - and people everyone is happy doing it this way - the other algos will be setup shortly on a more permanent server ...

the other donation ports are being sorted this afternoon for the other devs that help us here also ...

for the moment the list contains ... klaust - tsiv - tpruvot ( will keep you with git name if thats ok epsylon3 ) - djm34 - wolf0 - cbuchner1 ...

i know there are a few more that develop for the community - so please help us set these up with their own ports ...

for the moment - x11 is the algo that all will be setup for - but as commented earlier - the other algos will come soon ...

we hope that the community will be behind donating - no matter which way you decide ... direct btc to their donation addresses - or mining for them using your miners to help put a little more btc in their pockets ...

we have been doing this since we started the farm ... with only a few times that we have directly donated to the address ... we are more than happy to open this to all those who wish to donate ...

let us know what you think everyone ... your feedback is very important ...

tanx ...

edit - a donation batch is good for the windows users - and a donation scrypt is good for the linux users ... good idea ... but thats why we are looking at a 'more public' system to donate to - in the case the devs dont add those batch / scripts in ...

I sent you, KlausT, and tpruvot each a bit.  I have to mow the lawn, I will get back to "git and compile" this evening.  I am still running the release build of v46 on all my rigs.  The release behaved well, the charts on the pool were trending up.

Thanks for the 10 mBTC (first gift from the forum since... a long time)

For Cuda 7.0, its not compatible yet, but i submitted a bug report to nvidia which fixed the problem in their dev version. I didnt get details about the fix... but should be in next CUDA release, maybe 7.1, 7.5, 8 (no idea)

CUDA 7.x--

I downloaded and installed CUDA 6.5 on one of my rigs running nVidia driver v349.16.  The Cuda toolkit install reverted some of the driver components to v343.  The system compiles and runs, but my driver is reported as v343 now.       --scryptr

Actually, the Windows CUDA 6.5 Toolkit does allow you to keep your current driver set, if you just uncheck the options after having chosen a Custom Install.





It worked for me.

I did that when installing 6.5, and it installed an earlier driver anyway. No big deal really, just had to re-install the latest drivers. Weird.

ICO? Not even once.
TASKKILL--

I inserted your taskkill lines of code between every launch line in the Windows batch file for Yaamp.  I still get Windows error reports, not every time, but enough to render the batch file useless for a long-running script.  Maybe I haven't completely shutdown the error reports in my system.   I haven't compiled ccminer with your suggested correction.  I need to set up a Windows build toolchain...

--scryptr

So it sometimes crashes for you. In that case I doubt the code change will help you. The batch file doesn't call ctrl+c on its own.

ERROR REPORTING--

I redid my Error Reporting configuration in Win 7 x64.  I selected "ccminer.exe" as a program to specifically be ignored.  I saved this as an administrator.  I still get "ccminer.exe has stopped working" between every few algo changes in the Yaamp batch file.     If there is another way to shut the error reporting off, I haven't found it yet.         --scryptr

If I remember correctly I used a reg key like this (Option two):
