Yeah, same here (on amazon ec2). Had to downgrade too to get it working.

Cudaminer from Dec 1 doesn't work, at least on that hardware.  Downgrading to Nov 20 version fixed it for me.  Autotune also functions, and spat out K8x24 for me.  I'm running like so:

My amazon experimental setup, getting about 180kH/s combined GPU/CPU (which is obviously not going to turn a profit):

cudaminer -a scrypt -o $POOL_URL -u $POOL_USER -p $POOL_PASS -C1 -H1 -l K8x24
minerd -u $POOL_USER -p $POOL_PASS -o $POOL_URL -t 6

I’ve been able to compile the miner and install all the drivers and have it running, but it results in 2 things both which don’t work.

Without auto tune:

And with auto tune:

Floating point exception
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-24-209 CudaMiner]$

I’ve tried to manually specify launch configs in the K ranges but it still results in a does no validate error.

Thank you very much for your time, and I hope someone is able to help me.
