THANKS! Can't believe it was something so simple 
Sorry again for the noob post!

I seem to be getting slightly less MH/s than I did with Phoenix 2, although that was with fine tuned paramaters, whears I am passing Diablo no parameters besides my pool. Great MH/s for auto detect settings! Will try and tweak it and see what I can get from Capeverde 7770!

Just get rid of the http:// and you should be all set.

Use -l not -o.  -o is for imputing ip addy. Also you do not need -r 8332.

Another Diablominer noob here, sorry:

Just got Hd 7770 yesterday, wanted to try Diablo with it,  but I get this when I run Diablo:


C:\Bitcoin\DiabloMiner>DiabloMiner-Windows.exe -u myuser -p mypassword -o http://api2.bitcoin.cz -r 8332

It looks to me like there aren't any errors, but I'm not fammiliar with Diablo or Java really 

I have downloaded the latest Diablo and Java RE, and am running Windows 7 64bit; Also I am launching Diablo with a .bat file that passes some basic paramters to it like my pool. I read somewhere that you had to launch Diablo from cmd using a -java command, although I think that may have been for an older version...

Any help would be appreciated, I would like to test 7770 GCN with Diablo, and I haven't had any luck with cgminer either.. I'm on 12.2 with the bundled 2.6 SDK

So are we still running no flags for the best performance on GCN with the current DM?

Oh, and 2 BTC sent to help fund further GCN development. 

Noticed. U Released one 2/14 and 2/16 I was unaware.

Feature Request: Print build number to the console window

Systems at home are still on 12.1, sometime in the next 8-12 hours I'll have a chance to update them and report on the changes.

Well, on 12.1, it seems that a 5830 at 900mhz should get 287 or so. Are your systems at home doing that, or are they doing better on 12.2?

I do have the latest, just updated to be sure and still at 282mhash.  This system is an old pentium 4, and just running off the cheap Dell power supply so I can't push the card much without crashing.  Anything above 900mhz core seems to result in crashes.

I have 2 systems at home with 2X 5830s each, and they do better mhash per card, even at similar clock speeds.  I think I'm hitting a limitation in this box due to the old chipset or something.

Compared to my 5850@960, that'd be 360 and 384 mhash respectively. I'm getting 393. I have hopes for 12.2, but are you sure you're using the newest version of DiabloMiner?

12.2 seems magical.  Updated an old p4 box from 12.1 to 12.2 and gained 18mhash, from 262 to 280.

Using -v 2 -w 256

Radeon 5830, 900 core, 300 mem, 1.01v

Don't bother with it, 12.2 fixes it. Also, if you don't have -na, you're not using the newest version of DM.

Confirmed! Same here too. Diablo what is this -na flag u speak of? I do not have that option.

Okay thanks!

Catalyst didn't used to come with the SDK, it does now. That text is out of date due to the new kernel, its now 12.2 is recommended, use the SDK that comes with it.

Is this referring to the whole Catalyst suite including the OpenCL, Display, and ATI Integrated Drivers? Or just the actual program? Apologies if it's a n00b question.

New App fixes it from 12.2 drivers. (898.1)

EDIT: Picked up 5mh/s too.

So, -na fixes it on GCN, but it incurs an estimate 13% performance loss (at least, if the ops on my 5850 are any indication).

Goddamnit AMD.

The score thus far:
vliw5: 1% slower vs old kernel on 2.1
vliw4: 3-5% faster vs old kernel on 2/42.5
gcn: 1% faster vs old on 2.6

Seriously, goddamnit AMD.

Update: Remove -vs, -b, add -na for no array mode, set min fps to 0.1, and make loops work better.
