  • README

  • This is a multi-threaded CPU and GPU miner for bitcoin.
    
    License: GPLv2.  See COPYING for details.
    
    Dependencies:
    	libcurl			http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/
    	jansson			http://www.digip.org/jansson/
    	(jansson is included in-tree and an installed one may conflict)
    	libncurses5-dev (or libpdcurses on WIN32)
    
    Basic *nix build instructions:
    	To build with GPU mining support:
    	Install AMD APP sdk, latest version - there is no official place to
    	install it so just keep track of where it is if you're not installing
    	the include files and library files into the system directory.
    	(Do NOT install the ati amd sdk if you are on nvidia)
    
    	./autogen.sh	# only needed if building from git repo
    	CFLAGS="-O3 -Wall -march=native" ./configure
    	or if you haven't installed the ati files in system locations:
    	CFLAGS="-O3 -Wall -march=native -I<path to AMD APP include>" LDFLAGS="-L<path to AMD APP lib/x86_64> ./configure
    	make
    	
    	Note that you need to use /x86_64 for 64bit and /x86 for 32bit builds
    	If it finds the opencl files it will inform you with
    	"OpenCL: FOUND. GPU mining support enabled."
    
    Basic WIN32 build instructions (on Fedora 13; requires mingw32):
    	./autogen.sh	# only needed if building from git repo
    	rm -f mingw32-config.cache
    	MINGW32_CFLAGS="-O3 -Wall -msse2" mingw32-configure
    	make
    	./mknsis.sh
    	
    Native WIN32 build instructions (on mingw32, on windows):
    	Install AMD APP sdk, latest version
    	(Do NOT install the ati amd sdk if you are on nvidia)
    	Install mingw32
    	Install libcurl, copy libcurl.m4 into /mingw/share/aclocal
    	Run:
    	autoreconf -fvi
    	CFLAGS="-O3 -Wall -msse2 -I<path to AMD APP include>" LDFLAGS="-L<path to AMD APP lib/x86>" ./configure
    	make
    
    Usage instructions:  Run "cgminer --help" to see options.
    
    Also many issues and FAQs are covered in the forum thread

    The output line shows the following:
    [(5s):204.4  (avg):203.1 Mh/s] [Q:56  A:51  R:4  HW:0  E:91%  U:2.47/m]
    
    Each column is as follows:
    A 5 second exponentially decaying average hash rate
    An all time average hash rate
    The number of requested work items
    The number of accepted shares
    The number of rejected shares
    The number of hardware erorrs
    The efficiency defined as the accepted shares / requested work
    The utility defines as the number of shares / minute
