We've had a couple questions lately (#494, #492) regarding GPU and Stratum mining.

This document is a work in progress, but I'll get the PR up and running so it can be of use.
@maxima7787 and @feculay, please feel welcome to give feedback and/or contributions here as you navigate your projects.

In my situation i think core-geth launched with "--classic" command switching to PoA instead PoW.
Because when i launched Ethereum mainnet i received "commit new mining work".

All miners work with right epoch=261.

I can't test ethminer, because it's not support etchash.

I'm not sure what you mean here... --classic will only configure the Ethereum Classic chain and network parameters, which are definitely still Proof of Work. Can you clarify?

Note that your core-geth node will need to be synced with the network (working at the latest block height, importing new blocks one at a time) in order to start committing work.

in geth attach, eth.syncing give "false".
Later i will send log from geth window.

I'm using this command:
geth --classic --cache 21000 --http --miner.etherbase 0x8d091BabCC1EA354AcEab1a34a06A1035b9e7600 --txlookuplimit 1000 --mine
