Hello fullzero,
After a bunch of research and try, I built ccminer 2.2 successfully on nvOC 0018.

The previous build break is due to the openssl version,

Code:
m1@m1-desktop:~$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.1-dev  xx XXX xxxx

You used a dev build of openssl in nvOC, ccminer doesn't support it. I download source code of openssl v1.0.2l from openssl.org, build the code, create a few soft links to replace the v1.1.1, it finally works. Not sure if this change breaks other things.

I also built alexis78 fork, https://github.com/alexis78/ccminer, it requires one more step, replace cuda-7.5 to cuda-8.0 in configure.sh.

I'm looking forward these miners in nvOC 0019.

Using linux requires some technical backgrounds, fortunately I was a windows developer Grin

Thanks car1999;

this was helpful.

the problem with tp2.2 on nvOC was a file in the openssl: bn.h.  I swapped it with the version it was looking for and this resolved all the related errors.

Also the cuda version does need to be changed in configure.sh as you described, but also for 1000 series GPUs Makefile.am must be altered with the correct Arch flag, 61 for the 1000 series.

I compiled both alexis78 and Tpuvot 2.2 ccminer clients and added at download link to them on the OP.  I will include them in v0019 of course.
