I'll be testing this today, but it *appears* that the "idle bug" has been fixed in all of the "kanoi" versions of cgminer as of May 2nd - v4.3.1! The latest is v4.3.2 for AntMiner S1 ...
https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/NEWS
This is the flavor of cgminer I am using with my AntMiners ... but am running an older version: v4.2.2a I'll post again when I update!
BTW ... Kanoi has binaries available also: https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries
I'm hoping this solves my issues, and solve them for others too!
Good news ... bad news. I've run my tests on one of my AntMiner S1 with the updated "kanoi" cgminer above.
Good News: It appears that the "idle bug" has been fixed as I can now specify the "price" option in the password, and it is working properly.
Bad News: I'm now getting a large number of rejects and discards that I have not seen before. About 50% !!
Can someone else maybe look at this version of cgminer and see if they get the same? Any suggestions on options to add or alter to attempt to get things working better?
If we can determine the cause I'll open an issue with kanoi to get it fixed!
Yeah I get 60% rejects from my antminer S1 with kanoi's binaries. It did work fine on nicehash website a long time ago but something changed their end and its not worked since. So I don't put my s1 hashrate here anymore sadly. Maybe nicehash can supply binaries the same way kanoi does and we can use those ones. Who knows.
What are the type of rejects you are getting? Share below target, duplicate share or job not found?
Honestly I dont know as I dont see the cgminer screen on my antminer. I only go into ssh to update the binaries on these devices.
