Is there any way to check what the per chip frequency is after the autotune is done? Some of my Gridseeds are at frequencies such as 865, 830, 895 Mhz, Im assuming it's displaying the average frequency of the 5 chips per device.

Your pool is sending a new job like every second, could you please try a different pool?

I think you may have found my issue as I switched it to clevermining pool which seems to be giving the miners a difficulty of 512. I had been using difficulty of 128 with my gridseeds on multipool and never modified this for the blade. Seems to not be an issue with the 5 chip gridseeds, but it must be sending work too quickly for the blades to handle. Its been up and running for over 10 minutes now so I will let you know how it goes.

Ya I think sending work too quickly will corrupt the Gridseed registers, anyhow I'm making some modifications now so that it will prevent that.

It must be the way multipool is sending the work as I changed my difficulty to 512 and it still stops hashing on that pool. I see differences in my logs that I attached.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/109298881/cpuminer-gc3355Cleverming2.log

With clevermining I see this DEBUG: reject reason: job not found. When connecting to multipool that message never appears


i am having the same problem as this guy i have two 5 chip gc3355 on 0.9d and im just getting new work ids very frequently but no accepted shares, even only at 128 diff. --debug did not generate a file or do you have to close the console first because i changed GSD 1 down from 99mhz to 875mhz and i'm actually getting shares.

it is also displaying Got nonce xxxxxxxx, hash <= Htarget when it wasn't when i was mining on rapidhash. only displaying that on the multipool and only when it actually starts accepting shares, which albeit they are shares they seem to be fewer and my reported hashrate is lower then when i was on rapidhash. something with these pools maybe i don't know. the multipool was mining LTC at the time of this report.

thanks for all of your hard work sandor!

EDIT: Does your TUI work with single chip gridseed DUALMINERS? The USB sticks. If so that would be extremely convenient as I could have all of my gridseed chips on one console. I figured if you could implement a diff number support for the blade it wouldn't be hard to implement a single gc3355 chip com port into your miner? correct me if i am wrong!

Sandor, any chance of adding an option to switch back to the primary pool after failover to backup? I rent my hash power out on Betarigs and can't do it with this cpuminer.

Important! You MUST update to the latest binaries (Download on Github)

Just donwloaded another version of the source from your GitHub repo, and recompiled on Ubuntu and still am getting version 0.9c instead of ...d.

Maybe I've done something wrong but just double chekcking; is the new source up on GitHub also?

I like the new readout on version D.
Thanks.
So far I am not running into the slow death of hashing speed on my blades.
Great work.
I sent a tip your way.   Smiley


in the actual version of cpuminer ... the autotune feature doesn't log when it changes a per chip frequency nor the steps to go .. right?
any way to re-add that log output which showed which chip running at which freq?

Hum, does that auto tune work for the blade?
I have only used bfgminer so far with the blade unit, had issues trying to get cgminer working keeps kicking me out?

Here are my bfgminer settings, it runs around 50C right now in the basement, can run from 4.8-5.4hps max so far.

Bfgminer -S gridseed:all --set-device gridseed:clock=850:BTC=0:chips=40:modules=1:usefifo=0 --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://east1.us.stratum.dedicatedpool.com:3350 -u user -p password

Anyone have a cgminer configuration file that I can use to get this going with other mining software?

Of course it works for the Blade, it autotunes each chip individually.

Sandor this latest version(0.9D) has been working flawlessly now with my blades on multipool. Nice work blades are much happier

thanks

Great thanks for the info, I am a bit late in this thread.
Where can I download the software to give it a shot?
Thanks again!

I remember reading somewhere that said a difficulty of 256 was best for MultiPool, maybe 512
I've had it running now on MultiPool set to 256 since:  cpuminer-gc3355 - Started: [2014-05-01 19:47:02]
Still going strong at 5.58MH/s

Fixed buggy hashrate. Reduce work being sent + optimizations. More reliable ltc reset commands.
I hope that this version will solve the issues with Blades that stop sending shares.

Im not using a multi pool, but I have one instance running my 5chip pods, and a instance for the blade. It always seem that one of the board will start to taper off the other will keep working but not accepting any new work. Do you think running 2 instances to the same pool could be hindering the cpuminer? I am also letting the pool set the difficulty. I always starts off fine but it locks up anywhere between 20-90 minutes later.

I have been searching on for a guild to solo mining with gridseed, or asic's for that matter.  Can anyone give me a brain dead stupid guide on how to accomplish this?  Thanks.
