I tried to run separate instances of oclvanitygen inside 4 screens in console.
It's weird, first card was hashing at 21-23Mkey/s while the other three at 11-13Mkeys/s each.
When I run single instance I have combined computing power of ~51Mkeys/s. With 4 seperate instances when adding the values it is ~54-62Mkeys/s.
The load was ~90% on each card so better than with one oclvanitygen instance but still not ideal.
Anyone has been using this on multi gpu machine? Is that normal? Why I can't have stable 99% load on every card ?
Edit: I check load % with aticonfig Overdrive if that matters.

My GPUs are not the newest ones, I have 4x MSI Twinfrozr 7950.
I'll try to find a patch. Thanks.

For me I have a Nvidia 9500 Gt (2.5G) its so slow for this tool , I run it sometime 20 minutes for a 3 key pattern and
the speed is 216 key/s . Is my graphic card the only slow here ? or 216 is good ?
Is there a way check balance of vanity addresses automated?
You'll have to be more specific in what you're trying to achieve. 'vanity' addresses are just like regular addresses.

Hi,
I have a question to oclvanitygen users.
I successfully compiled the software under Debian linux. I have old mining rig with 4 GPU.
Everything seems to work but the load of the cards is quite low: 70-90% and not stable. Nothing that I'm used to when I recall old mining times with stable 99% load in cgminer.
How to increase the load to 99% ? It lowers performance a lot with ~80%.
Second question. I'm unsure how to read the results.
vanitygen provides simple and clear output:
Example:
oclvanitygen provides something different.
Example:
How to convert it to normal BTC address and private key?
I also noticed when I turn on single GPU workload rises to 97-98%.

2) newer gpus have a problem that results in incorrect hashes (the message you get from oclvanitygen). search this thread for a post of nasty with a patch for it.

quick question, i installed ubuntu, installed drivers, and folowed the guide i posted before.
Why ubuntu cant see i have 2 or 4 vga? Is there any driver im missing?
Im not thinking in oclvanity, im wondering why ubuntu cant detect i have more than 1 vga plugged in... its odd :/

That being said, how can we now trust that you are in fact The Real Steve? 
You can't Though if I managed to create a 1TheRea1Steve, that'd be pretty good 
thanks this is really nifty for business names - to put a name to an addy
Just keep in mind that you should never use that as anything more than exactly what it is, a vanity. Say you generated a bunch of vanity addresses '1Actua1', and advertised that as trusted addresses for customers - then I could easily generate my own '1Actua1' addresses and try to con your customers into sending funds to me.That being said, how can we now trust that you are in fact The Real Steve?

i did all the commands there, im not sure which sentence of all the 200 lines that gaves me back, its the correct that says how much cpu my mother can see. (i send you a pm)
as far as i can see, my pc only detects one vga

the -D 0:0 it works. but the others dont... :/
i installed a program called lshw-gtk that shows all the hardware in the pc, and i can only see 1 vga i think.

first, nothing to do with "VGA".
second, use the appropriate option! its -D not -d.

next time check the --help

When selecting my graphics card I can't seem to get this to run I want to be able to generate 100 keys with 4/5 custom prefix. Anyone have any step by step guide to get this to work?
post the arguments ur using, otherwise you very likely wont get any help at all.

Was somebody able to find a fix for the error that many users encounter on a mac with oclvanitygen?
I looked and looked but all I could find were other people with the same error but no solution to it.
I tried varying the grid size, playing with the d/D options, rebuilding, Wyseninja's via homebrew...
I only get 700 Kkeys/s with oclvanitygen using just the CPUs (I'm on an Imac), which I don't want to run because of potential heat issues.
Can somebody please help? Thanks!!

@Loco : You tried looking the link which I posted a few posts above. Check whether every GPU is found.
