    Ccminer 1.7.2
    • Decred Algo (longpoll and getwork, no stratum)
    • Blake256 improvements/cleanup
    This version is built with CUDA 7.5 which seems to improve blake and skein algos. (depends on the driver version)

    The x86 for devices with SM 2.1 3.0 5.0 and 5.2
    The x64 version is only built for devices SM 3.5 / 5 and 5.2

    The x86 binary built with cuda 6.5.19 is compatible with all archs including 2.1 and 3.5 like the older builds

    Download

    Dont forgot to showoff ur hash rate :p

    Anyone having the issue when you try to start ccminer that it just hangs and never starts?

    I am not sure what has changed but I re tried it last night and it started working and it seems just fine on Suprnova. Thanks for your work on Ccminer tpruvot. The x86 6.5 version is the one I am using.

    oh, suprnova server was a bit overloaded since a few days, only a few ports were open during a period . could be that..

    Didn't even noticed it until just now @tpruvot, you're very sneaky lol... / I need to pay better attention.

    https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/commits/decred

    compiling what you have for 1.7.3 so far to play with it / stratum support.

    edit @tpruvot It seems the unknown-work error that cgminer had, has started popping up when mining on long-poll occasionally in 1.7.3

    Adding --scantime 2 to your command line seems to fix it. (nm still getting it occasionally but less it seems)

    there was no changes about expired works on the longpoll... the difference should be on the other side ;)

    Told you guys I was going to get bored and write something in Python...lol :)

    May post this in the altcoin forum thread also.

    https://github.com/codyf86/PyCCMiner

    I wrote a simple API interface in Python 3. I know everyone just cringed when they read Python 3, but you can easily convert it to work on Python 2, but come-on just install Python 3 already it's been 10 years nearly...as everyone who uses linux cringes. =)

    Use PyCCMiner.py to be able to input console commands to send. Type help for a list of options.

    Can also use PyCCMiner.py -C <command> to constantly send one command that refreshes.

    Right now it just connects to port 4068 under local host (which you can easily change) and does a GET request.

    Going to add more things soon, did this from scratch in a couple hours; had to brush up on my Python a bit too was fun. Will also work on android devices if you install python 3 for android and setup the command line interpreter there is a guide if you wiki it, so you can check your miner from your phone remotely with a small python script.

    Going to add log file output etc next.

    What parameters would be best to lower gpu load? I browsed the readme but wasn't sure which would be the correct ones. Each coin and applicable miner seems to have different settings. I typically have a low settings bat I like to use when I'm on my pc so it's still useable for watching movies or whatever and then a full blast bat when I'm away.

    May be different for the 9xx cards but with 2 or 3 7xxs going it doesn't even slow my computer down at all really. If yours is slowing down I believe there is an -i intensity setting like in cgminer now. Think the value goes from 1-25 and can be a decimal.

    Don't do more than 2 cards per ccminer instance i've found works best, but 2 is fine.

    Also believe there is another command in the readme that lets you specify how many cpu threads to use or something along those lines.

    tpruvot's miner is the only one that works with older cards.

    What is the value of using stratum?
    - I lost between 50 and 150 MH/s, switching. Which is rather much, when I only have 600, on this laptop. <.<

    That might just be the .3 version, actually.
    - Though I find a bit more shares, apparently. So I'm not complaining.
