Is there a github for the new version? Any word on release date?

My rock-solid 5-gpu rig has during the last four days developed an issue and I dont have a clue as to what is causing it or what I should check next. At random intervals I find the rig idling, no mining going on, a simple restart mining does not resolve the issue, whereas a powerdown or coldreboot does. The main pool is up (I've even had the pool op check logs for anythig unusual... nothing there), the two backup pools are up, there has been no interruption in the network connection.

Miner: Phoenix
Bamt version: fully patched 0.5

Other thing's I've checked: the flashdrive running bamt is not full.

Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[edit]
The only variable that has (somewhat) changed during the period this issue appeared I can think of is that the rig is getting cooler air as it is outdoors and it's fall here.

Does the rig still have network connectivity?

lodcrappo,

Your current cgsnoop does not work with bfgminer 2.8.0. It doesn't output "Temperature" anymore via the API if none of your devices can show the temperature...

Here is an ugly hack for cgsnoop Smiley Add the following on line 166:

Code:
while ($res =~ m/\|PGA=(\d+),.*?MHS\sav=([\d\.]+).*?Accepted=(\d+),Rejected=(\d+)/g)
{
    $msg .= '|' . $1 . ':{"fan_speed":"0","current_temp_0":"N/A","current_core_clock":"0","current_load":"99","hashrate":' . $2 . ',"shares_invalid":"' . $6 . '","fan_rpm":"0","shares_accepted":"' . $5 . '","pool_url":"cgsnoop/' . $host . '","desc":"FPGA (cgsnoop)","current_mem_clock":"0","current_core_voltage":"0"}';

    if ($verbose)
    {
        print "PGA $1\n";
    }
}

thanks.  in general, bamt makes no attempt to have compatibility with software/versions other than those it comes with or delivers via fixer/apt.  in this case it is likely that we'll be packaging bfg 2.8.0 in the near future though, so this is good to know.

I'll create better patches over the weekend, I've had to adapt both mgpumon & cgsnoop.

Pretty sure this has been the case since 2.5.0, FWIW.

BAMT supports 2.3.1, anything else has "you're on your own" status for now.

remove gpus one at a time till you figure out which one it is.

... hmm makes me think about my discussions with a certain dev about backward compatibility in the cgminer API and that dev's comments ... that leads to issues like this Smiley
Oh well ...

I have 3 BAMT rigs all working with stratum. Just change your pool addy to your stratum-proxy ip.  You are running the proxy on a local machine correct? No proxy no worky worky.

Mapuo Met the same problem a month or two ago. The cause was defective PCIe riser ribbon.

Have somebody an idea how to setup BAMT to use STRATUM proxy?
user:pass@myproxy:8332 doesn't work at all (windows cgminer is ok with that).

when starting up what does this mean

checkfs.sh failed with warning colored in yellow
Same problem, and bamt fail after 2-3-4 hours. Any ideas?

"checkfs.sh failed with warning colored in yellow" means nothing important and can be ignored.

bamt fails after a few hours = reduce overclocking.

It's the same rig with the same stick, with new BAMT on stick(actualy the same). Previosly work fine, now I reduce overclock with 10-20 mhz, but rig working few hours and fail. The only difrerence is yellow "checkfs.sh is ok with warning" or something like that.

as I already told you, that warning is unimportant.

sounds like some hardware isn't as happy as it used to be.  things break, it happens.


Ok, thanks.

I think that checkfs is intentionally disabled for reducing startup time and reduce USB stick wear.

we have a winner

is there a soft release date for version .6 yet i think im holding off on new usb keys and asking to see about rates as fair as you programing my fram to read on one page until the release.

0.6 has been "done" for a couple weeks now.  However we have bugs that have been very difficult to track down and have delayed the public release.
