Failed to start kernel: -54



  • I tried to mining with sia-gpu-miner-v1.1.0-darwin64 but I got this "Failed to stat kernel: -54" error. Please, somebody can help me? What does that error mean and how can I fix it?



  • What graphics card are you trying to mine with, and what OS version?



  • Mac OS X El Capitan and a GeForce 9600 GT 256MB video card



  • Did you mean a GeForce 960M? The 9600 is close to a decade old and is incompatible with the gpu-miner. If it is indeed a 960M than you may be better off trying the 3rd party cuda miner optimized for Nvidia cards: https://github.com/KlausT/Sia-CUDA-Miner/releases
