I read somewhere that thread-concurrency has no bearing in neo-scrypt
I have compiled 3.7.7b under Ubuntu.
I have not managed to get it to run for more than 24 hours at a time.
Lots of restarts between accepts - i am running this against a p2p pool for PXC.
You are missing OpenCL libraries. If you have them installed correctly - it will say OpenCL found and then follow the rest of the instructions.
I found these instructions somewhere and fine-tuned them.
Try this - version numbers may have changed.
1) AMD app sdk:
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/
The installer for the APP_SDK seems to break some files, or at least it did during testing. Do the following to fix it:
cd /etc/OpenCL/vendors/
in here are two files amdocl32.icd and amdocl64.icd, you will find their contents (they are just text files) to be “libamdocl32.so” and “libamdocl64.so” respectively.
Edit them to include their full paths, so the contents of
amdocl32.icd --> “/usr/lib32/fglrx/libamdocl32.so”
amdocl64.icd --> “/usr/lib/fglrx/libamdocl64.so”.
NOTE: A user building on Xubuntu 13.10 reported his libamdocl32.so and libamdocl64.so libraries being at /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libamdocl32.so and /usr/lib/libamdocl64.so respectively.
2) ADL SDK

In this example, my source code is in ~/Miners/cgminer
Where is the lastest cgminer source available?
thanks,
folks, check this out https://github.com/ahmedbodi/stratum-mining-multialgo it claims to support stratum for neoscrypt
this has not been modified in months
only looks like cpu neoscyrpt at best.
other cpu miners available if wanted .
Where is the source for this. Love to help.
I have a bunch of GPS’s i can throw at this.
Kind of missed one point.
We don’t have to switch unless needed, if everyone knows we can and will switch that might be deterrent enough for the short term.
Hi,
I’m new to crypto so please be gentle…
With regards to changing algorithms, the reason ASIC developers create new ASIC is because it can be profitable. Both for the creators of the ASIC and potential miners.
So using litecoin as an example, it became the next best after bitcoin so ASIC developers started working on production units.
Clearly very soon, ltc is going to be for the people that can afford asics.
What if we make the stance that FTC is ready to switch to any one of 2-3 different algorithms at any given moment.
All the homework is in place and all 3 algorithms are tested and ready to implement.
Now all of a sudden, there is a deterrent - if it becomes imminent that an ASIC is coming to market for scrypt-n, we can switch.
Now no developer is going to want to develop an ASIC, when they know their product would be useless almost immediately.
Doesn’t really matter what algorithm is switched to.
Thoughts?
Hi,
New to the board and I have an idea or two about choosing a new algorithm.
This is my first mandatory post and I will post the ideas to the correct post.
Thanks,
