Whenever the vards initialize or not, the miner works super nice from what I have seen so far. I am busy all day optimizing my rigs for this miner. If some cards don't initialize, miner still works, just displays 0h/s for that card, and CPU usage is high, so he is probably stuck trying to initialize the cards or something.
Then, i just quit the miner and try few times and eventually all cards initialize.
Yes, me too.
For vmozara's problem, I'm 97% certain this issue would be solved with a staggered init. These Celerons are just too weak for a parallel init for > 2-3 GPUs or something. I'll add some more options now to control the behavior at startup, then send you a PM. Need to wait for todxx to provide a new build, but it would be nice to connect and do a few verification runs instead of just pushing a new version out there not knowing if it actually solves the problem.
@wyzdic, are you having the same issue as vmozara? It feels like we might have a different problem, do you get a random nr of gpus going or always the first six? Furthermore, I've heard about people that have issues in general getting > 6 Vegas going under Linux, are you on Win or some Linux version?
Win10 LTSB. 18.6.1, 8x Vega56.
It's not random, it's GPU 6 and GPU7 every time, and it doesn't show GPU6 and GPU7 at startup, it can be seen in the thread. Using -d 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7, the problem remains
