Mining On Linux Issue (gominer)

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to get mining to work on a Linux machine (Mint 18) using a Nvidia 960 card using gominer.
I have followed the instructions as per this page: https://github.com/decred/gominer

When i try to make, it fails with below:

Code:

~/.go/src/github.com/decred/gominer $ make
mkdir obj
nvcc --lib --optimize=3 -I. decred.cu sph/blake.c -o obj/decred.a
/usr/include/string.h: In function ‘void* __mempcpy_inline(void*, const void*, size_t)’:
/usr/include/string.h:652:42: error: ‘memcpy’ was not declared in this scope
   return (char *) memcpy (__dest, __src, __n) + __n;
                                          ^
GNUmakefile:37: recipe for target 'obj/decred.a' failed
make: *** [obj/decred.a] Error 1

Any ideas how to approach this, or if there's any other alternative for gominer?

 

Thanks for your reply Jolan, running nvcc -V shows:

Code:

nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver

Cuda compilation tools, release 7.5, V7.5.17

Ive downloaded both gominer and ccminer but unsure how to start them I tried the install instructions on ccminer but only gets this when I try:

Code:

ccminer -n
No command 'ccminer' found, did you mean:
Command 'cgminer' from package 'cgminer' (universe)
ccminer: command not found

Sorry for being a complete noob! What is the best nix to use for mining purpouse?

Many thanks
