I have my old GPU miner and thought I would get started mining at the beginning like I wish I did with other coins. I am running one of the all in one linux distros that support my cards and have multiple miners to choose from. If I enter the pool info for suprnova.cc:9110 it just fails, if I try running cgminer via CLI I always get a segmentation fault. What am I missing? I have the Decred files on the miner for the wallet, dcrd, and dcrctl. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Never had this much trouble before getting started. My linux is 32 bit so if I need to get a new cgminer please post a link for the 32-bit version. My CPU can run 64-bit, but when using the 64-bit version of the mining distro it kept crashing so I would like to stay on 32 since it seems to be more stable for me. My other idea is to make a live usb windows 7 if I cannot get linux to work. But as I said I have not had this much trouble before.
So you say that the official decred cgminer doesn't have support for mining decred? I must be mining something else with it then... BTW, BLC blake256 != DCR blake256
Unless it is some state secret, how about telling us what distro you are running... Or, just install Ubuntu on a thumb drive and use the guides and tools that everyone else is using quite successfully.
Ya I am lost at this point, the cgminer I have will support blake256, i know DCR uses blake256, when I try it just fails, what would cause the segmentation fault even when trying to run benchmark? Can you send me a link to the direct download or did you want me to use git clone and build it? I did not see a DECRED cgminer listed on that page above, I maybe missing something. I am used to other mining, completely new to blake256 and decred.
Distro is PiMP or BAMT, one of the all in one GPU mining distros PiMP seems to have the cgminer that supports --blake256
@LastNinja, when I go to this link to download, http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/, what should I be downloading?
Again, DCR is using more rounds on blake256 and other block header specs. It will not work with historic versions of the miner made for other coins.
So I built from source, when running ./cgminer i still get a segmentation fault error, what am I missing?
Anyone know what I am doing wrong? It built successfully, but still cannot even run --benchmark without getting a segmentation fault error
