I was curious to try this for ethash, but it doesn't work under Ubuntu 16.04 for me with CUDA 9.1 and 390.48 drivers. Error is "Failed to initialize miner for device 0, with err: Failed to create solver"


I tried adding "-devices 1" and get the same thing:


No problems with ethminer or claymore.

Any clues?

My rig resets (simply resets) when starting the fourth device if trying to mine btm.
No problems if mining zhash or eth

4x Geforce 1080ti

I'm on ubuntu 16.04.3 with 410.66 drivers

Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.10.0-37-generic x86_64)

Actually, i tried using -devices 0,1,2 and it still resets when starting to mine.
Also tried limiting the cards power to 200w just in case, same result

When i use -devices to only use one card it seems to work fine, i.e. -devices 0 or -devices 1

If i start 2 miners separately, one with -device 0 and the other with -device 1, both work, but the 3rd resets the rig too, no matter what devices i choose, 3 and 4 and then 1 produces the same result)

Mine BTM 10.5.0, Win 10 , cuda 10,cuda 9.2 6x1080Ti ---- PL 50-100%, OC no OC... always freeze, restart rig, at startup or within minutes ... with other miners, I have no problem.

Would you please check the version of nvidia driver and update to the latest version to see if it works?
you can find it follow this guide:

or please send more detailed information about the error by sending the log or error screenshot.

thanks!

I will take a look but I can't guarantee you to release for it.

ZEC prices are shooting up on account of the approval of a ProgPoW proposal, introduced by the 'Ifdefelse' team, to make ZCash GPU-friendly. The ProgPoW proposal being ASIC-resistant and GPU-friendly seems to have lifted investor sentiment in the market.

maybe this algorithm as well...
