<p>I succesfully installed <a href="https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer" rel="nofollow">cgminer</a> on my mac but every time I try to run it I get the message </p>

<pre><code>[2013-09-16 15:03:49] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
</code></pre>

<p>why is this? Is it that you cannot mine with the GPU on a mac, or am I just doing something wrong? </p>

<p><strong>Specs:</strong></p>

<ul>
<li>Macbook Pro (2011)</li>
<li>Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5</li>
