DiabloD3 -
just thought i'd check in with my compliments.
i'm running Debian testing (LMDE) - i froze updates at march 30 on my mining-only box.
with your miner set at -w 128 -f 1, my two (VisionTek) 5850s (with crossfire connector attached) are putting out 495,200 Mh/s regular as an atomic clock. i'll screw with overclocking after i've scored a couple of blocks - i'm coming up on 'average time' (six days plus some) as i write this. my case is a piece of crap though: less than 1/2" clearance between the second card and the bottom of the case. i'm running it open with a couple extra fans, and the bottom card fluctuates between 72-74.5 degrees. gotta poke a hole in it or get a bigger case if i'm gonna overclock.
my SDK is 2.1, and Catalyst is 11.2. motherboard is an MSI 870A-G54, with a ~90 watt Phenom dual-core (whatever...) and 2 gig RAM.
you sell shit and i'm your customer...
EDIT: oh - and coinage on blockage, of course...
As a suggestion, don't use Catalyst 11.x or 10.12 for mining. It usually leads to abnormally low speeds for no reason. Also, you need to turn crossfire off, and just disconnecting the bridge doesn't turn it off, you need to run
aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all as root and then restart X. Leaving crossfire on can lead to incorrect results (which my miner is supposed to catch and spit out errors for). Also, you should be getting better speed with -w 64 (as this is what is recommended by AMD).
Hi all. I'm new here.
I would like to start mining with DiabloMiner.
I'm having troubles to understand how to run it; till now I'm stuck on the NoClassDefFoundError error.
But first of all I'm not sure that my system is able to do GPU mining. I'm running Gentoo Linux with NVidia GeForce 7100 GS; I made some search with no success.
Could you confirm/exclude I can do GPU mining?
thanks!
You can't mine with a Geforce 7xxx, only 8xxx and up.
