Oh my lord....I must have had way too many txt documents up all at once, because I ended up successfully creating the cpu miner that I think is Wyvern or whatever Raptoreum has up on their website.  I had the READ ME of cpuminer-opt up and I was trying to figure that one out as well, so obviously my brain is a wee bit addled.  I just took a look and it does say right there in the READ ME doc that the gr algo isn't supported anymore.

The miner that's the object of this thread (cpuminer-opt) looks much more interesting now that I've begun to understand the workings of it.  I'll let the RTM miner run a little longer then try the other.  Thanks for catching my boo-boo.  I still give mucho props to JayDDee; that wasn't a mistake.
