btw Xiangfu and the rest of the team (I believe Aseras deserves some thanks as well!) I must congratulate you on a job well done with the latest firmware. It is rock solid! I've had 6 days of uptime so far - something I was not able to achieve with previous firmware revisions.

Any plans to upgrade to cgminer 3.0.1? Is it worthwhile?

The cgminer 3.0.x versions were the first official release I made that had avalon support in it, but the code is identical to the 2.11.4 version of cgminer I coded specifically for the avalon that xiangfu included in the latest firmware. So no, there is no point upgrading as there is no new code affecting the avalon in cgminer yet.

Hi

You mean you have to cold reboot Avalon and your home router. can you try mining with eithernet + 20130419 firmware?

What was the link to that surge suppressor that was web enabled where you can power cycle it remotely?

Ordered One Today.

I presently use http://dataprobe.com/iboot-remote-reboot.php

no not implemented
could be possible - there is an actual wattage field in the webif of the fritz!box if you get this out it could be possible...
I dont have much time in the moment to play around so I'm happy with the remote reset option

jeh! works great! since yesterday my avalon is pluged in one of those Wink

is there a build in (or to make it in software) watchdog if the current is under a certain level to resetting the power outlet?

You can try what I did, check your connection to the pool or try another pool.
Maybe pull the plug from your router for 10 seconds ?
Also I changed from wired to wifi and I flashed back to 20130410.
I think my unit did not perform well because of a bad connection, either on my side or the pool's side.

I am on more then one pool and at all was the same (with Avalon; - 1 GPU stays connected)

as you correctly said, I have had to cold reboot the router too (connected with wifi)...

I'm running smooth and steady after changing router & isp/uplink-provider.

Cgminer NMW (no_matching_work) was high too so I think there was something wrong with the connection.

But back on track again Cool

notable is that no restart or stop/start of cgminer aided and today a cold reboot of Avalon neither...
only a cold reboot of Avalon AND the router (TL-MR3420 with latest firmware)

I had the same issue. Today for the first time.

Reflashed it to the previous firmware 20130410 and now it's hashing again.

Unit struggled before it went down.

thanks for confirming, but what's stopping cgminer inside avalon from using stratum with p2pool?

I have several cairnsmore boards mining on p2pool with stratum with cgminer 2.10.5, so a much older version than the one inside latest avalon firmware.

is this a problem of p2pool code or one of the version of cgminer inside avalon?

p2pool's stratum code. The version of cgminer inside avalon in the latest firmware is up to date now.

ckolivas,

cgminer is also older than the one on latest avalon firmware.

But if I point my Avalon to my p2pool without adding --fix-protocol I only get invalids.

How can it be?

I heard you the first time. Dunno, but the rest of the pools get it right yet it makes the avalon spit out heaps of dupes. I don't understand python so I wasn't about to go poking into the p2pool code. If/when I have more time on the avalons I can investigate further to see what p2pool is spitting out that it doesn't like, but for now, the code used by the cgminer on avalons is the same as the current cgminer code and not a single pool has a problem with them. I have some vague ideas but nothing conclusive... and have other tasks taking priority for obvious reasons.

here you can see 10 cairnsmore1 mining on p2pool with stratum and all is running fine.

cgminer is also older than the one on latest avalon firmware.

But if I point my Avalon to my p2pool without adding --fix-protocol I only get invalids.

How can it be?

Hi spiccioli

Add other cgminer options (like --fix-protocol) to /etc/init.d/cgminer is right. I plan to add [Cgminer options] to the web page in next firmware. then we can add the 4th pool or 5th pool at [Cgminer options].

Hi xiangfu,

I've just updated my units, but I still cannot mine on p2pool without using --fix-protocol which has to be added by hand to /etc/init.d/cgminer

Is this the way it is supposed to be? Shouldn't p2pool mining be working with stratum when using latest cgminer?
