Problem solved. The added error handling gave this:
"too many resources requested for launch in cryptmd5.cu at line 241"
I decided to add a similar check to all CUDA kernels and this quickly solved the three other problems I had too (mscash, wpapsk and pwsafe). All four problematic formats just needed a lower THREADS figure in their respective header file.
I did not commit these lower figures though we might consider doing that. I did commit the added error handling to all formats.
I also added some info in README-CUDA and a specific hint from HANDLE_ERROR() when this particular error comes up.
Thanks,
magnum
