AMD OpenCL Momentum miner

[duckproto]

ok, thanks. this is a little bit strange... i need to think about it.
@duckproto: the 270X has 4GB RAM, or? with 2GB two instances should not work

both the 290 and 270 have 4GB each.

well, it seems that you are trying to use your integrated graphics. this will not be very fast if it would work.
my compiler outputs binaries for BeaverCreek so at least compiling has to work for you. i guess this is a driver bug. in my opinion  drivers for APUs have a lot more bugs than the desktop drivers. which version of fglrx are you using?

[MrMeow]

8.982  kernel-3.2.0-57-generic-x86_64

[NaN]

the driver is very old.

[MrMeow]

Tried it with a newer PC with a newer APU and the latest drivers. Got the following:

not enough memory. you need at least 1.25GB for the GPU. it is hopeless

[MrMeow]

Ok...thanks for your time

I am very curious to test on Windows with 2X R9 290x.
Soon a Windows version?

It works with 1GH?

Thank you in advance.

I'm working on a windows version and it will be released as soon as my toolchain for windows binaries works (likely today or tomorrow).
The miner can only connect to beeeeer.org at the moment but i plan to add additional pools.

[duckproto]

UPDATE 4: Windows binaries are released and the README is updated with some help. The 32bit-Windows binaries are not testet yet; thus feedback is appreciated. A bug for 5000 and 6000 series GPUs is fixed but the miner is still not optimized for those cards[/quote]

can't run two instances in windows - first instance gets 'cannot connect to server' when second instance starts.  unlike linux version, this can run both "0 1" cards @ 3800c/m using both cards.  can't run one instance as you get this eventually http://i.imgur.com/otoWQaJ.gif

heading back to ubuntu...

If it is Linux, this could indicate that there is no running Xserver. please always provide some info about the used catalyst driver and the operating system (32bit windows / 64bit windows / 64bit-linux)

In your case i think that the miner tries to get the devices of the intel opencl platform and perhaps fails because the intel opencl implementation does not support any of your devices (-1 means CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND). I need more information to decide that.

I had the same error I removed the Intel OpenCL SDK on one system, on the other in device manager show hidden devices and remove driver for Intel 4600 video driver.

You can confirm that the Intel OpenCL driver is installed by running cgminer -n

That solved my issue.

ITS WORKING 

Can you create such a miner for nvidia cards ?
