Please share what is the best pool for Verge Myriad Groestl because Super Nova is paying way less than the est reward of 741 XVG daily.
Last day it just paid 345 XVG

Thanks.

Overclock Baikal X10 to 400mhz possible ?

That's what I'm thinking. Don't have it working yet. Will need a custom sgminer build.

man. two days after getting my X10 up. blinking blue lights and it isn't connecting again. do I reflash the firmware again?

jesus fuck baikal.

at my Baikal Gaint X 10 every 6 hours it's about a little bit shorter. is that the same for you guys?



Sorry, but this does not make sense in English. Try re-phrasing.

have tried to mine lbry with x10 with giant b image all share discarded Sad

Did you use a custom sgminer?

no just the stock image

but it recognize the board, i only plug one board to avoid that others get damaged
i get a hashrate of ~13 ghs which fits to the data sheet 3*~13=40ghs for lbry

i think the is a line of code which avoid mining

Hi,

Restore the X10 image on the X10 SD card
Boot the X10
Rename folder /opt/scripta to /opt/scripta2 on the X10
Copy folder /opt/scripta from Giant B image to X10 (with winscp)
Reboot X10
And try lbry again ...
This will run X10 image with scripta Giant B miner  Wink
Thank you very much for yours tests


Tl;dr: Tried it, couldn't get it mining.

Replaced the scripta folder with the one from the giant B, booted, and the miner never seemed to connect to the hash boards. The web interface also showed the default GB pool configs, but the algorithms were blank and the dropdown menus only had options for the Gx10 algos.

Also replaced the var/www folder so the image would have the scripta and web interface from GB but the rest of the image was Gx10. This let me select the GB algos with the GB default pools, but the miner never connected to the hash boards.

Tried restoring the GB image and the miner connects to pools and hash boards, but all shares are discarded. Haven't gotten into the sgminer logs yet to see if I can diagnose why it's rejecting all shares.

The most interesting thing I think is that with the default GB image, the FPGA clocks from 300MHz up to 400MHz. This means that the sgminer build is setting clock speed somehow and the STMicro controller is just interpreting an instruction set from sgminer to the FPGA chips.

please tutorial screen shots or step by step Thanks

Dude, if you need a tutorial, you shouldn't be testing this!

Wait for someone else to see if it works and then see if they will share instructions. I don't think it will work, but I would love to be proved wrong!

Anyway, why change an X10 to Giant B? X10 can still make lots of $$ daily!

please someone pm simon888 to help me please please please, i got serious problem with greek customs....
my tracking is
http://www.dhl.com/en/express/tracking.shtml?AWB=7388835171&brand=DHL

A DHL representative shall attempt to contact the importer or please contact DHL Customer Service for further assistance. Customer should contact DHL Customer Service if not reached by DHL
I declared 1999$ as they did not accept the internal invoice of very low amount.... and i dont know they could possibly try to contact asicminermarket for my order ....

anyone knows which FPGAs are used in the x10 ?
Even if the FPGAs are identical, if the PCB layout is different i.e. expects an input and you program an output... fireworks.

Yeah, I believe that for algo change firmware update should be performed too, not only Orange PI Zero image. There is firmware published only for Baikal Mini. When Baikal decides that it is enough money for them, they will release firmware with two more algos for X10.

Can some linux expert modify giant B image for giant X10  ?

There seems to be an assumption that the Giant X10 and Giant B use the same or very similar hardware. Do we know this to be true?

Without all the source code, it will be difficult to do anything as decompiling will just create a mess.

Some people may not have the slightest idea of how this works and yet try to hack stuff from Baikal-B into this. These machines are FPGA based, it's not the software the one doing the hashing, it's the FPGA chips. There is no "decompiling" or hacking sgminer that can help you there. If the FPGA chips are different, most likely the bitstream for the FPGA just won't work on the other chips.


Yes, but that brings me idea... Giant x10 will support two more algo. So ? Those chips are allready programed to do these algos. OR There is way to re-program stock giant x10 image to do another algo.

I tried the same thing and got the same result. All shares discarded. Interestingly, it does up the clock speed of the chips to 400MHz, so this offers some hope for the overclocking potential.

If anyone has access to a Giant B and is willing to run a few commands on it for firmware testing, please let me know.

Does anyone have any Baikal Giant X10 or B red miner blade boards that are bricked and wouldn't mind parting ways with (since they're not doing any mining for you anyway)? I'd like to do some testing with at least one board from each miner (X10 and B) but don't have that hardware on-hand. Thanks.
