Trying solo mining, downloaded gmc-windows-4.0-amd64.exe and followed the instructions on musiccoin web site, i.e. started gmc like this:


gmc-windows-4.0-amd64.exe --rpc --rpcaddr "192.168.1.4" --rpcport 8545

...
0410 22:05:23.322342 node/node.go:366] HTTP endpoint opened: http://192.168.1.4:8545
...

It synced the whole block chain, then I tried genoil ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.1.7

ethminer -G -F  http://192.168.1.4:8545 -O 0x...... --opencl-platform 1

But it consistently gives this error:

Found suitable OpenCL device [Ellesmere ] with 4294967296 bytes of GPU memory

What am I missing ?




erase this = --opencl-platform 1

Without that switch it doesn't recognize my AMD rx470's

You shouldn't have to setup the RPC port to 8545 specifically.

Try just running: gmc-windows-4.0-amd64.exe --rpc console in a command window or a batch file.

Allow for full chain sync.

Then on your miner use: ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 200 -G -F http://localhost:8545  -O

-G is graphics and -F is the getwork proto that will look to your local IP.

Didn't make any difference, I even disabled windows firewall, still doesn't connect. Perhaps this latest gmc release has a problem ?

I haven't tried solo mining for a while with MC. I can try later today with this on my Rx480 rigs.
