That’s why Im asking :-), Im a bit confused. Would be nice if you can post your results after test…
The reason is that they put compiled boost libs into the repository and they were definitely compiled using different options and/or compiler version. I don’t know why they did that since boost is open source. In my case I had to rebuild these libs from original boost source and replace them here to build the miner successfully (tried some forked repo with any pool support, though, but this didn’t matter).
I am not a boost programmer and can’t recommend how to build them from source PROPERLY as a part of this project. I just tried and built them out of tree. Hope someone can figure out how to do that right.

Anyone else get a segmentation fault when running this for some extended period of time? Really bugs me because the miner crashes (and not in an elegant way). Using EC2 m4 instances…
Looks like we are hitting some issues with OpenCL and the programmer working on it hasn’t taken on to Linux version yet, so I am not sure if there will be a release today. But, maybe I can prepare Windows bins with xenoncat and CUDA today if you really want to mine faster so much

Yes please! Fingers are itching!
There was any difference for low-end processor like a I5-2310?
Yes please! Fingers are itching! hope!
I hope faster 
es please! Fingers are itching!
Linux needs to be the number one priority to be honest.

oh not windows again… would you please release CPU version with xenoncat integration for linux ?
I am not a linux developer, so I can’t help you with that
Man! Was sure hoping OpenCL release was going to happen today. I think windows miner is just as important as linux!! Lots of windows users aswell.
I am an AMD miner myself but wholly support releasing a CPU miner with new solver asap.

80% of market on Windows, no matter how much you want it to be. Linux will never be the priority.

In this field 90% of the development and mining takes place on Linux. So yes. It should be. No large scale miners use Windows to mine.
90% of large scale mining. Not 90% of mining. If you want to encourage decentralization you release Windows clients. And Nicehash customers are not data centers. I completely understand why they focus on Windows.

Hello, approx what time you will have a ready new miner for windows?
Thanks for reply.
Poor logic.
Its like saying "If you want things to be really decentralized release the miner for iOS and Android since those outnumber Windows.
The processing power is what makes the network secure, not simply decentralization.
While Nicehash’s customers may not be data centers. Who do you think supplies their hash power? Data center, large GPU farms, as well as individuals.
Poor comparison sine those devices don’t have the same characteristics or possible profit contribution. I also very much doubt data-centers and GPU farms contribute almost any of Nicehash hash power. When you mine at a scale, you don’t need nicehash to convert your hash power, you simply mine and sell over open market.
Clearly if you’re a Linux GPU miner, your focus and support should be on the other attempts at a miner before the launch (zogminer, str4d’s standalone, and coinsforall, for example) . Given the slow start rewards, I’m not anxious to put full mining effort into receiving zero ZEC as a reward. Within a month, when the reward reaches stability and any changes to the network/protocol are complete there will be quality open-source miners for Windows and Linux.
