Hello, my config gminer:

Code: Select all

miner.exe --algo ethash --server prohashing.com:3358 --user croiscen --pass l=1,n=gtx1050,a=ethash-lowmemory
Get run error:

Code: Select all

19:12:49 Connected to prohashing.com:3358 [50.220.121.209]
19:12:49 Authorized on Stratum Server
19:12:49 Connection Error: End of file
what's wrong?

I think you need a GPU paired with at least 3 or 4 GB RAM, and l= should be set to 3 or 4 because all of the ethash-lowmemory coins available for mining here have DAG sizes over 2GB. If you set l=1 it says end of file because there are no coins to mine with DAG sizes that fit in 1 GB. I don't know if a regular gtx 1050 with 2GB RAM can mine ethash anymore. I've found neoscrypt to be good for 1 GB cards, and equihash 144_5 to be good for 2 GB cards.
