How to prevent stack smashing on ccminer

Question

I have tried everything to get mining with my Nvidia GPU on Ubuntu 16.04 using ccminer. I've tried completely purging all drivers and dependencies and building from scratch, but I still have this issue, but when I try to run I get a "stack smashing detected" error:

My video card is a GeForce GTX 580 (CUDA compute 2.0). I have the latest drivers installed from Nvidia. I have tried to use the --threads=1 flag to see if that would help, but no dice. I've also tried using CUDA 6.5 and CUDA 8.0. I am out of ideas.

Answer 1

It turns out that I was accidentally using the ancient and unmaintained tsiv branch of ccminer. When I had tried to install the KlausT version, it didn't overwrite this old version.

To solve this, I ran sudo rm /usr/bin/local/ccminer and re-cloned the KlausT branch of ccminer.
