I've got an OpenCL error running oclvanitygen on a Mac (NVIDIA Geforce GT 120):

A "Failed to wait for events" error; is this an OSX-specific OpenCL error, or have others run into this? How can I diagnose what is going wrong here?

My guess is that the kernel is only for AMD and the NVIDIA architecture isn't ideal for this kind of thing.

Aye.

All paid signature campaigns should be banned.

Are there going to be addresses that start with a 3?

Will the new version of vanitygen generate addresses that start with a 3 ?

Previous versions worked but 0.19 seems to crash everytime. It actually crashed the whole computer once.

This is what I'm using

oclvanitygen -d 0 1bitcoin

Using 6970 with stock settings on windows 7 64bit. Help, anyone Cheesy

Could be a problem with my GPU since CPU works perfectly?
I don't know, GPU mines normally with cgminer.

Version 0.19 seems to always crash when using the -X option.

Code:

% ./vanitygen -X

It's been a while since vanitygen has been updated. I went through the earlier posts on this thread, and have tried to summarize the most common issues and feature requests:
...
The FAQ could certainly do a better job of explaining how to launch vanitygen. Deepceleron, I really liked your earlier post, it has instructions that are very clear and concise. If it's okay with you, I'd like to merge that into the FAQ.

Congrats on your return. You can use or re-purpose anything I wrote, with or without attribution. Thanks for your software!

Anything else?

Quote from: deepceleron on February 23, 2012, 08:16:06 PM

When specifying a case-insensitive address prefix on the command line or in a text file list, you must still only use valid Base58 characters. This means you must only use lower-case i or o, and only upper-case L, or you will get an error.

Bad: 1celeron, 1CELERON
Good: 1ceLeron, 1CELERoN

This could be fixed so that if a case-insensitive search is being done, the user doesn't have to use correct case as input.

It would make it easier if the output format of vanitygen would be:

Thats right, if you have lots of keys generated, the copy/paste method is not very straight forward.

Just export the keys to a txt file and from there you can copy/paste anywhere.

If I export them to a file from within vanitygen, the output I get is:

and so on and so on. I don't think I can directly use those for importing, but instead I would have to individually copy and paste each privkey. And that is difficult Tongue

Perhaps I've used the wrong setting? (-o ./found.txt)

I compared 0.17 to 0.19 but i see no speed difference.

Apparently, no speed improvements or performance-oriented changes to the kernels within the changelog.

Quote

Version 0.17, released August 8, 2011:
   - Bugfix for private key encoder, could create encodings not
     accepted by showwallet branch bitcoin
   - Remove oclvanitygen #pragma unroll by default, enable for NVIDIA
     (General performance improvement, hopeful resolution for crashing)
   - Oclvanitygen work size configuration tweak for smaller GPUs
   - New oclvanitygen add/subtract/compare functions for AMD Radeon
   - Add support for AMD BFI_INT instruction in oclvanitygen hash functions
   - Minor source code reorganization

Version 0.18, released July 4, 2012:
   - Support additive base public keys for outsourced address generation.
   - New oclvanityminer program, organized address miner for use with
     bounty pools, like ThePiachu's Vanity Pool.
   - New keyconv program for converting bitcoin private keys between
     wallet import format, password-protected format, and PKCS#8.
   - Support generation of simple P2SH (type-3) addresses.
   - Mac OS X makefile merged with Linux Makefile.

Version 0.19, released July 4, 2012:

Is it possible (for you) to add a feature similar to how the vanitygen exports to a file, but with only the privkeys, so that it could be easily mass-imported into Armory or using pywallet?
