okay that sorted it.  Still getting CMake Error: Could not create named generator MSYS Makefiles
Hmm. Open cmake-linux.sh and change every mention of "MSYS Makefiles" to "Unix Makefiles".

setgenerate true makes my reaper not mine anything. 0 fermats 0 gandalfs. While if setgenerate remains false, it calculates (153k Total), but then crashes.

mtrlt, I have read build.txt... The link to libblmaker appears to be an invalid zip file.  I have tried getting/unzipping in both linux and windows
Oh. Freaking winrar made a rar file and just named it zip.. Fixed now. Please redownload.

Yep it crashes after 10sec. Someone post your reaper and prime conf file if it is working for you...

Here is mine, as long as i have setgenerate true in the primecoin client running it stops crashing, not sure if its mining or not though??.

Decreasing sievesize increases working time from ~5 sec to 15-20 sec before crash Smiley

It writes invalid n % and goes on writing that million times...
After that it says fermat = 0 gandalf = 2323 ( or something)
Is that normal?

After that it crashes...

Crashes 5 sec into mining:

VS 2012 debugger reports:

Unhandled exception at 0x0042621A in reaper.exe: 0xC0000095: Integer overflow.

The error messages and crashing on my system was because i didnt have the primecoin client mining before running reaper.

I hope this GPU miner will not work, and the primecoin will stay only on CPU...  Smiley

Seems to run for ~3-5 seconds and then exit out with a bunch of error messages. Will take a look at the code, but I'm no programmer.
Which error messages?

primecoin_address in primecoin.conf I need to enter myself, or reaper takes automatically from primecoin client?
You have to enter it yourself.

The build folder appears to be empty in linux.  How do you compile it?
Read build.txt.

In reaper.conf

where it has
device 0
device 1

do we need to add upto device 4 for a 5 card rig ??
Also do we just set the XPM client to Setgenerate = true and then point all of the miners to it ?
Yes you can add devices up to 4 for a 5 card rig, or just delete all device lines and reaper will use all devices automatically.
Also I just realized I left a silly config option there. cpu_mining_threads controls how many threads are used for GPU mining.. sorry for that. If you have 4 GPUs, you should have 4 or 8 cpu_mining_threads.

Doesn't matter if the XPM client is setgenerate=true or false. It only affects the XPM client's internal CPU miner.

Can anyone confirm if this is the same reaperminer that was being sold at 0.5 BTC at satoshibox?

Need a campaign manager? PM me
Anyone kind enough to share the stuff?  Roll Eyes I am more than willing to accept the gift (link) to the beta.
Somebody spent 1 BTC to get their hands on a decent miner and then will give it to you for free  Roll Eyes

Oh you guys..... I hate to say this... but I'm suspecting a scam.  The "source" is available elsewhere and is old code that has been available for at least a month. If anyone can contradict me, please do
