However, in defense for the colx community from my previous post, even if I did have beforehand mining knowledge, I still wouldn't have been able to figure it out. I only know how to mine sha256 and scrypt so everything else is foreign to me. I tried to use -a quark or whatever but it shut my miner down instantly. The problem could be that I am comfortable with bfgminer and maybe it is the wrong one, idk but it feels like these things should have been made more clear.
