I just got up and running on Lubuntu 14.04 using the AMD 14.4 drivers today. Running a single powercolor reference R9 290x and getting 3.5Mh/s at I 19 --no other options set.

This sgminer software needs work...

The Accepted, Rejected and Hardware counters at the top of the screen never increment (A: R: HW:).
The pool connection never indicates what the miner is actually connected to ie (Connected to Pool 0)

With all the fuss over stolen hashrate, using this algorithm, this piece of software needs some work.

I'd love to see a ckolivas version of an X11 miner.
Ckolivas, I will tell you, is a douche, a very big one. He no longer supports OpenCL(since like 3.7.2) and will refuse to add it, he despises anything other than SHA256 and this is further reinforced by the fact he removed scrypt.

Sorry if I sound harsh, but I know him from like when he first wrote cgminer and...his character is just awful, kano is his protege.

No harm done, there are lots of "personalities" out there, and I wasn't happy when he dropped support for scrypt myself. With that said, his software put mining on the map for many many people and there have been countless variants based on his work. For that he gets a bunch of respect from me --despite his dropping support for scrypt.

If you can tweak the above issues (seeing the active pool and incrementing the counters properly), I'll happily send a donation.

Tried on Gigabyte 7950, with the following config:

Quote
sgminer -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://drkpool.com:3333 -u USER -p x --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://pool.xhash.net:3355 -u USER -p x -I 20 -g 1 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-powertune 20 --thread-concurrency 24000 --temp-cutoff 95 --temp-overheat 85 --temp-target 75 --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1

Though the intensity is 20 in the config file, the I in SGminer does not go beyond 18
Also, is the getaddinfo message keeps coming. Is that an issue?



Then tried the following config:

sgminer -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://pool.xhash.net:3355 -u USER -p x --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://drkpool.com:3333 -u SUER -p x -I 15 -w 256 --gpu-threads 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20 --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1

The intensity is 15 but it still shows as 18. It does not change for some reason.
Still get the getaddinfo message:



it is for your bad internet connecion maybe packet loss

Thanks, any idea why the intensity won't change? Its fixed to 18.

Seems that this version is not optimised for HD58** and HD59** series.
I have 4 gpu rig that has 5300Mh/s with regular miner
but with this version instead to get more Mh/s i got just half of that, about 2000 Mh/s.
Changed everything in config file, tried with just a bat file, but no success.
Anyone has a clue ?

drivers v13.2
haven't tried with 14.4 yet, it will make a difference ?
Yes, you need to use -k x11mod, not darkcoin as the kernel.

If like me you rent your rig on Nicehash, you might want to try my fork of the Nicehash sph-sgminer which supports the both the x11mod kernel and the proper Nicehash idle pool behaviour. It basically just pulls in the the lasybear code into bitbandi's repository.

This will only be useful for a couple of days because all of this will soon be incorporated in the main sgminer codebase.

In this case, windows binaries https://www.dropbox.com/s/twgpm0qtibm09kz/nicehash.rar

rename the current config to something else. sgminer.conf.default or something.

With no tweaking and just entering parameters in the bat file, I'm getting 3.2 Mh/s on 280x (Sapphire and HIS) and 2.6 on 7950s (Sapphire dual-x). Good stuff.

THIS IS THE BEST ADVICE IN THE THREAD

I was hashing at 2.3 with sphminer, upon the first release of the x11mod miner I was up to 2.5. After reading through the thread I tried the default settings and now im hashing away at 3.44 m/hs on a 290. Thanks everyone!

Has anyone had any issues with their rigs completely freezing up and needing to restart?

Sure. Usually because my settings were a bit too aggressive for this miner. I have had two complete freeze-ups and a handful of cards going sick that require a hard boot to get them recognized and working again.

Most of the time it was my overclocks being a little too ambitious.
