Nvidia Tesla C2075 does not work in xmr stak 2.8.2, win 10... #2237

Hi, Psychocript: I have been using xmr stak, win 10, for my Nvidia Tesla c2075 gpu. It runs well in 2.5.0. However, when I run 2.8.2, the gpu does not work. I re-installed cuda 10.0, still did not work. My Tesla c2075 is on driver 386.07 If I run 2.8.2 without gpu, xmr stak runs well, but it would quit when I put gpu in nvidia file.

Thanks for looking into this.

to add. I downloaded your xmr-stak-win64-2.8.2.

for such an old gpu you must use cuda8 because this was the last driver which support fermi gpus. Than you must compile the miner by your own. our binaries need at least cuda 9 (if i remember correct) If you have still issues with selve compiled cuda8 binaries please report the full error (also all output before) and provide your pools.txt file that I know which coin you are miner.

I missed that you use windows. in that case the precompiled binaries require cuda 9 and cuda 9 is not supporting your gpu. so please use our compie guide ro build all with cuda8

Hi,: Thanks for your quick reply. I have been using xmr stak for monero for a few years.I have several server machines to run. It was a product of 2011. since the 2.8.2 quit so quickly, I cannot get image of the error.

Below is the pool.txt: // generated by xmr-stak/2.5.0/90125127/master/win/nvidia-amd-cpu/20

/   pool_address    - Pool address should be in the form "pool.supportxmr.com:3333". Only stratum pools are supported.   wallet_address  - Your wallet, or pool login.   rig_id          - Rig identifier for pool-side statistics (needs pool support).   pool_password   - Can be empty in most cases or "x".   use_nicehash    - Limit the nonce to 3 bytes as required by nicehash.   use_tls         - This option will make us connect using Transport Layer Security.   tls_fingerprint - Server's SHA256 fingerprint. If this string is non-empty then we will check the server's cert against it.   pool_weight     - Pool weight is a number telling the miner how important the pool is. Miner will mine mostly at the pool                     with the highest weight, unless the pool fails. Weight must be an integer larger than 0.     We feature pools up to 1MH/s. For a more complete list see M5M400's pool list at www.moneropools.com  */

Supported values:        aeon7 (use this for Aeon's new PoW)      bbscoin (automatic switch with block version 3 to cryptonight_v7)      bittube (uses cryptonight_bittube2 algorithm)      graft      haven (automatic switch with block version 3 to cryptonight_haven)      intense      masari      monero (use this to support Monero's Oct 2018 fork)      qrl - Quantum Resistant Ledger      ryo      turtlecoin     Native algorithms which not depends on any block versions:        # 1MiB scratchpad memory      cryptonight_lite      cryptonight_lite_v7      cryptonight_lite_v7_xor (algorithm used by ipbc)      # 2MiB scratchpad memory      cryptonight      cryptonight_v7      cryptonight_v8      # 4MiB scratchpad memory      cryptonight_bittube2      cryptonight_haven      cryptonight_heavy  /

Hi,: While, I would try to use your win version, if possible. Meanwhile, can you send me a link of your compile guide?I will take a look to see if I can do it myself. Thanks.

Thanks. It appears difficult for me to fully understand the content. Hope Psychocript could provide a win64 version for this type fermi gpu. With upcoming March fork, I have to use newer version of stak. Not to be able to use quite several number of my Tesla gpu, would be a waste. Thanks.
