From the looks of it, you just need to

1. make sure that miner exists in the current directory (ls -al)
2. start the miner like this ./miner --flags etc etc  ( ./ is current dir).

Thanks

edit - sometimes it is named "minerd", but IDK in your case, I don't use that miner.

the problem is that your current directory is not in your %PATH% so it can't see miner, so you have to start it by ./ or fully qualified path e.g. /usr/local/src/miner-src/build/miner --flags

oh derrrrrr.... I was forgetting the "./" in front of "miner"

however, a new issue ----

In the wolf readme it states

Wolf's OpenCL XMR Miner for AMD GPUs

If you get an error about clCreateBuffer - lower your rawintensity. See the example config xmr.conf for details.

Generally, you want to raise rawintensity as high as it will go without error - but remember, 2MiB of GPU RAM is needed for every work-item.

I edited the xmr.conf to reflect my GPU's stock clock and memory freqs, then reduced the intensity to 100 .... I still got the error. I reduced the intensity all the way to 1, I still got the error. I don't think its an intensity issue, more like an open cl issue perhaps?

Your thoughts?
