It doesn't matter what miner you use.
You still have to get your bitcoind/bitcoinQT set up to serve as a server (node) to solo mine.
It's just a couple of entries into a file that the program reads when it initializes, and then it's a server.
From that point you can mine solo with any getwork miner you like from your own node.
Every miner has to have a node. If you use your own it's solo mining, if you use someone else's, it's a pool.
Does that make more sense?
There are a TON of tutorial threads for this I'm not going to re-write it. Solo mining is the same process for every bitcoin-derived altcoin I've seen so you might as well sort it out.
