Topic: Linux mining distro for the Raspberry PI - MinePeon - page 84. (Read 685021 times)

Note to Self : Do not do updates with 22 miners running. I believe this is the source of the problems I have had.

Disconnect miners, update, reboot, restart mining.

Seems sooo obvious now lol@me.

This might not be a problem with fewer miners.

Am gonna start again with this n mind tomorrow.  

Chances are you can solve it with this:
http://minepeon.com/index.php/Troubleshooting#Set_permissions_after_git_pull

Minepeon will not update anything on the settings page - am stuck in Africa killing kittens

I'm still running the original minepeon 0.2.2 release and I just got the little LCD display.

Should I follow the tutorial (https://github.com/cardcomm/cgminerLCDStats/blob/master/MinePeon%20Install.md) now (including "sudo pacman -Syu" and all the other updates) or is the next minepeon release imminent and I should wait a day or two?

When I do the minepeon update as in the tutorial, will it keep all my settings (miner, changed passwords, wifi etc.)?

It's @ 16 after a restart of cgminer.

Have you tried testing with a higher difficulty ?. 32 should be ok. I can't remember if 50btc lower the fee for using a higher diff ?. Excellent work BTW on your display.

I pushed a few updates for the LCD display code to github. The current version hopefully fixes a bug where the incorrect pool URL was sometimes displayed. (Kano: I didn't code this exactly the way we discussed, but I think it's working.) I also updated the URL display code itself. If anyone notices an incorrect or scrambled URL, let me know Note that the full pool URL will not be displayed.

Updated photo of the current display layout:



Thanks for the support and feedback, y'all.

Very cool tip. I'll add that to the tutorial

Thanks for the positive comments

This issue has been "kind of" addressed in the latest version of the code. I'm attempting to do some "intelligent" truncating of the URL line by removing certain pieces I think are never useful for display. For example, I'm stripping out "stratum.", so with the new code you will probably see something like "mining.el". I'll change the code to also strip out "mining." which should fix the issue in your case.

Without knowing a lot of pool URLs, it's hard to know what to strip out. Any suggestions on URL segments to always remove? I think the current list is "stratum.", "www.", ".com", and now "mining.".

I would like a change to the pool details if possible, all I see is stratum+tc if this line could be expanded or could be adjusted in the script to be user defined
e.g. stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 then output = Eligius   
This would be most helpful..
I love the work your putting into this.
I've now received my second PI so can play more once I have spare time. Have sort of been holding back for Neil to release the 0.2.3 though.
 

I get his error when i run

Make sure we have all the latest MinePeon packages:
cd /opt/minepeon/
git pull
