Finally found a solution for skein issues with sgminer problem and got it running but performance is disappointing - I get around 170MHs per one RX580 while on on single GTX 1070 Ti I get around 660MH. So if anyone wondered is it worth to mine this on AMDs - absolutely not unless maybe you got Vega. If anyone else got better results for AMD Polaris cards please do let me know.

Hi,

I saw that you had trouble with skein and sgminer, which I'm having trouble with as well. I've tried various versions of sgminer, and also tried renaming skein.cl to ckolivas.cl...I still can't get this to work.

What solution did you find, if you don't mind sharing?

Thanks...

Here's my config:

sgminer.exe -k skein -o stratum+tcp://pool.bsod.pw:2134 -u ADDRESS -p x -p c=ARGO --gpu-platform 0 --intensity 8 --worksize 128 --gpu-threads 8 --thread-concurrency 4608 --nfactor 10

Here's an example of what I see:

[07:45:01] Algorithm skein not found, using ckolivas.

After renaming sskein.cl to ckolivas.cl, I move past the not found error, but no shares:
